Five twelfths plus three eights
35/40 but then you need to round it down which will be 7/8
Problem:5/12 + 3/8 I would first make like denominators by making them both 24 (on the bottom)You can do this by multiping 5/12 by 2 and 3/8 by 3. Making the new equation 10/24 + 9/24Now add them together and simplify if you can
