To add these fractions, we first need to find a common denominator. The least common multiple (LCM) of 8 and 4 is 8.

3/8 + 3/4

To convert 3/8 to have a denominator of 8, we multiply the numerator and denominator by 2:

3/8 = 3/8 * 2/2 = 6/16

So we have:

6/16 + 3/4

To convert 3/4 to have a denominator of 8, we multiply the numerator and denominator by 2:

3/4 = 3/4 * 2/2 = 6/8

Now we have:

6/16 + 6/8

We can combine these fractions by finding a common denominator (which is already 16):

6/16 + 6/8 = 6/16 + 12/16

Now we can add the numerators and keep the common denominator:

18/16

We can simplify this fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor, which is 2:

18/16 = 9/8

So:

3/8 + 3/4 = 9/8
