    Answer:

    17/24

    Step-by-step explanation:

    You need to add 1/3 and 3/8. To do this, you need to change the fractions to where they both have the same denominator. The smallest denominator of the fractions is 24.

    To get the denominator of 24 on the 1/3, you had to multiply the 3 by 8. So, you need to do the same to the 1:

    8 x 1 = 8

    The first fraction is now:

    8/24.

    To get 24 on the 3/8, you had to multiply the 8 by 3. So, you need to do the same to the numerator, 3.

    3 x 3 = 9.

    The second fraction is now:

    9/24.

    Add 9 and 8, and keep the 24 the same.

    9+8 = 17.

    17/24

    1/3+ 3/8 = 17/24. Or 0.7083
