Question

Evaluate $\frac{3}{8}+\frac{7}{8}+\frac{6}{8}$.

• A. $\frac{2}{8}$
• B. 2
• C. 3
• D. $2\frac{2}{8}$

Answer 1

The correct option is B 2

Since all three rational numbers have the same denominator, we can directly add the numerator:

$\frac{3+7+6}{8}=\frac{16}{8}=2$

Therefore, the sum of the three rational numbers is 2.
