Chapter 1: Problem 72

Perform the indicated operation. Where possible, reduce the answer to its lowest terms. $$\frac{3}{8}+\frac{3}{8}$$

Short Answer

Expert verified
\(\frac{3}{4}\)

Step by step solution

01

Add the Fractions

When adding fractions with the same denominator, keep the denominator the same and add the numerators: \(\frac{3}{8}+\frac{3}{8}=\frac{3+3}{8}=\frac{6}{8}\)
02

Simplify the Fraction

The fraction \(\frac{6}{8}\) can be simplified by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by the greatest common factor, which is 2 in this case. So, \(\frac{6}{8}=\frac{6 \div 2}{8 \div 2}=\frac{3}{4}\)
