Answer:
3/8+8/11= 97/88
Step-by-step explanation:
This is how you add
[tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{8}{11}[/tex]
Step 1
Of course, you can't add two fractions if the denominators (bottom numbers) don't match. To get a common denominator, multiply the denominators together. Then we fix the numerators by multiplying each one by their other term's denominator.
Now you multiply 3 by 11, and get 33, then we multiply 8 by 11 and get 88.
Do the same for the second term. We multiply 8 by 8, and get 64, then multiply 8 by 11 and get 88.
The problem now has new fractions to add:
33/88 + 64/88
Step 2
Since our denominators match, we can add the numerators.
33 + 64 = 97
The sum we get is: 97/88
The last step is to reduce the fraction if we can.
To find out, we try dividing it by 2...
Nope! So now we try the next greatest prime number, 3...
Nope! So now we try the next greatest prime number, 5...
Nope! So now we try the next greatest prime number, 7...
Nope! So now we try the next greatest prime number, 11...
And finally after we reduce we get 89
89 is larger than 88. So we're done reducing.
There you have it! Here's the final answer to 3/8 + 8/11
3/8+8/11= 97/88
