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

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
