Hello!

Answer:

$\Large \boxed{\sf (3)/(4)}$

Explanation:

→ We want to simplify this expression:

$\sf (2)/(4) + (2)/(8)$

◼ Simplify 2/8:

$\sf (2)/(4) + (2 * 1 )/(2 * 4)$

$\sf (2)/(4) + (1 )/(4)$

◼ Add the fractions (they have the same denominator)

$\boxed{\sf (3)/(4)}$

Conclusion:

The expression 2/4 + 2/8 is equal to 3/4.
