Question

what is 1/8 plus 1/9? with work

Answer 1

first you will need to find the Least Common Denominator.

Answer 2

which i think is 72

so you will need to multiply \[\frac{ 1 }{ 8 }*\frac{ 9 }{ 9}\] and \[\frac{ 1 }{ 9 }*\frac{ 8 }{ 8}\]

Answer 3

and you will get\[\frac{ 9 }{ 72}+\frac{ 8 }{ 72 }=\frac{ 17 }{ 72 }\]

Answer 4

hope this somewhat helps
