Four eighths
1/2+3/8=7/8 -lover of math geeks ;) the common denominator is eight, so one half is converted into four eights. Then, three eighths plus four eighths is seven eighthts, so your answer is seven eighths. - A math geek
three eighths
One half "of" a number means one half "times" that number, so just multiply it. One and three eighths means one plus 3/8; you can either multiply 1/2 times 1 and 1/2 times 3/8 separately, then add the results (distributive property!), or first convert 1 3/8 to an improper fraction (11/8 in this case).
One-half of three-fourths is three-eighths.
one half because 4 eighths would be a half
Three eighths plus one eighth equals four eighths. When you add these fractions, you keep the same denominator, which is eight. Four eighths can be simplified to one half. Thus, three eighths plus one eighth equals one half.

To find out how much less three-eighths is than one-half, first convert one-half to eighths. One-half is equivalent to four-eighths. Subtracting three-eighths from four-eighths gives you one-eighth. Therefore, three-eighths is one-eighth less than one-half.
To add one half to five-eighths, first convert one half to eighths. One half is equivalent to four-eighths. Then, add four-eighths to five-eighths: (4/8 + 5/8 = 9/8). Therefore, one half added to five-eighths equals nine-eighths, or 1 and 1/8.

Three eighths is the same as six sixteenths - half of six sixteenths is three sixteenths
It is one negative half.
one half
One-half of three-fourths is three-eighths.
No. Seven eighths is more than one half AND three quarters.
