Find a number that 9,3, and 8 all can multiply to.

A number is 72.

for 1/9 to go to 72, you have to multiply 9*8, therefore, you will need to multiply 1*8

The first fraction is 8/72

Next, you'll do 2/3 of 72. To do this, divide 72 by 3.

You'll get 24. Then multiply by 2.

Your second fraction is 48/72

Finally, you'll do 5/8 of 72.

First, divide 72 by 8. Then multiply by 5.

You'll get 45

45/72

For the last step, add them.

8/72 + 48/72 + 45/72

you'll get : 101/72( simplest form)

1.4(divided)

1 and 29/72 ( improper fraction)
