3/9= 1/3
1/4=3/12
1/3=4/12
adding
7/12
The equivalent fractions that can be used to evaluate the sum of 2/8 and 3/9 are 1/3 and 1/4
The fractions are given as:
2/8 and 3/9
Adding the fractions
The sum of the fractions is represented as:
[tex]Sum = \frac 28 + \frac 39[/tex]
Reduce the fractions
[tex]Sum = \frac 14 + \frac 13[/tex]
Take LCM
[tex]Sum = \frac {4 + 3}{12}[/tex]
Add the numerators
[tex]Sum = \frac {7}{12}[/tex]
Hence, the equivalent fractions that can be used to evaluate the sum of 2/8 and 3/9 are 1/3 and 1/4
