Answer:
6 23/24
Explanation:
First, find the least common factor of 8 and 12, the denominators.
8 16 24
12 24
24, is now the current denominnator,
8x 3 = 24
Now you go do it to the numerator, 3 x 3 = 9
9/24 + ?
Now, 12 x 2 = 24, do it to the numerator, 7 x 2 = 14
4 9/24 + 2 14/24
Now add the front numbers to make 6, than add the numerators and keep the denominator.
6 23/24, since you can not simplify this fraction, this is the answer.
