9/8 becuase the bottom number is the same so you just add the top numbers 2+3+4=9 and you just keep the 8th as they are

Ok, so we are going to do 2/8 + 3/8 + 4/8. The first thing we are going to do is 2/8 + 3/8. 2/8 + 3/8 = 5/8. Now, we are going to do 5/8 + 4/8. 5/8 + 4/8 = 9/8. We are going to divide because 9 is bigger than 8. 9÷8=1 remainder of 1. So, Therefore, your answer is
\boxed{1 (1)/(8)}
