Answer:
17/24 hours
Explanation:
First, find the common denominator.
multiples of 3: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24
multiples of 8: 8, 16, 24
24 is the common number both 3 and 8 have and will be used as the denominator.

3 goes 8 times into 24, so you know you have to multiply the numerator and denominator by 8.



You can multiply 8 three times to get 24. So, you know you have to multiply the numerator and denominator by 3.


Now, you have
and , so you must add them together.


So, the answer is
hours.
