$\frac{7}{24}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Question : $\frac{1}{6} +\frac{1}{8}$

Answer :

$\frac{1}{6} +\frac{1}{8}$

$\frac{1*8}{6*8} + \frac{1*6}{8*6}$

$\frac{8}{48} +\frac{6}{48}$

$\frac{14}{48}$

Now to simplify the fraction divide both 2.

$\frac{7}{24}$

Hope this helps you :-)

$\displaystyle\frac{7}{24}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

The first step is to find the common denominator.

Let's think of the LCM (Least Common Multiple) of 6 and 8.

$\bold{6:6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54...}$

$\bold{8:8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48...}$

As you can see, $\bold{24}$ is the LCM.

However, we can't take 1/6 and turn it into 1/24, right?

So, we also have to change the numerator.

We multiplied 6 by 4 to get to 24, so we multiply the numerator by 4 as well.

$\displaystyle\frac{4}{24}$

Now, let's do the same thing to 1/8:

We multiplied 8 by 3, so we multiply the numerator by 3 as well:

$\displaystyle\frac{3}{24}$

$\displaystyle\frac{4}{24} +\frac{3}{24}$

Now that the fractions have common denominators, all we have to do is add the numerators:

$\displaystyle\frac{7}{24}$

Hope it helps! Enjoy your day!
