Answer:


1(17)/(24)

Explanation:

First find the Least Common Denominator of all the fractions.

The denominators of all the fraction are 8, 4, 3 what can you multiply to get the same number. The Least Common Denominator is 24. 8*3=24, 4*6=24, 3*8=24

Now represent it like this


((3)/(3)) (5)/(8) + ((6)/(6)) (3)/(4) + ((8)/(8)) (1)/(3) Simplify


(15)/(24) + (18)/(24) + (8)/(24) = (41)/(24)

Simplify


1(17)/(24)

Hope this helps!!
