Answer:4/8 or simplified answer 1/2

Explanation:

3/4 + 3/8, first you have to find the highest common factor of 4 and 8.

The answer is 9. The denominator of both side will be 8. Now you ask yourself 4 times what gives you 8 and times the numerator by that number. And do the same for the 8.

6/8 + 3/8= 9/8

9/8 - 5/8= 4/8

The simplified answer is 1/2
