Answer: 6 1/8

Explanation:

1/8 x 2 = 1/8 x 2/1 = 2/8 = 1/4

1/4 x 3 = 1/4 x 3/1 = 3/4

3/8 x 4 = 3/8 x 4/1 = 12/8 = 1 4/8 = 1 1/2

1/2 x 3 = 1/2 x 3/1 = 3/2 = 1 1/2

5/8 x 1 = 5/8 x 1/1 = 5/8

3/4 x 2 = 3/4 x 2/1 = 6/4 = 1 2/4 = 1 1/2

Start with the big number first.

1 1/2 = 1 4/8

1 1/2 = 1 4/8

1 1/2 = 1 4/8

5/8 = 5/8

3/4 = 6/8

1/4 = 2/8

Add them all up.

1 4/8 + 1 4/8 = 2 8/8 = 3

3 + 1 4/8 = 4 4/8

4 4/8 + 5/8 = 4 9/8 = 5 1/8

5 1/8 + 6/8 = 5 7/8

5 7/8 + 2/8 = 5 9/8 = 6 1/8
