the answer is 7/8 because they have the same denominator so you just add the numerator witch is 4+3=7 so you keep the denominator so its 7/8

Lets write our question out first:-


(4)/(8)+ (3)/(8)

Normally we would need to change d denominator to a common denominator but it is already the same denominator so we just need to add d numerators.

4 + 3 = 7

So,
(4)/(8)+ (3)/(8)= (7)/(8)
So, Jake and Millie ate
(7)/(8) on d pizza.

Hope I helped ya!!
