I will give medal
so first, u'll have to convert the fractions so that all of the denominators are the same
lets make the denominator 48, since 8*3*2 equals 48
7/8+1/2+1/3=
the first fraction would thereby be 42/48, the second would be 16/48, and the last would be 24/48
you need common denominator
so the common should be 24
now just add the numerators, keep the same denominator, divide, round, and bingo! :)
ps the answer is 1.7083, so now just round
7/8*3/3=21/24 1/2*12/12=12/24 1/3*8/8=8/24
don't listen to them it is me tbing
What!!!!
1.8000
well either way the ending answer is the same, both round to 2
(21+12+8)/24=41/24
