Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
Note that 2 divides into 8 evenly, yielding the quotient 4. 8 is the LCD. To combine 3/8 and 11/2, we would rewrite 11/2 as
4·11
------ = 44/8
4·2
and then combine 44/8 with 3/8. The sum would be 47/8.
In summary, the LCD of 3/8 and 11/2 is 8; 3/8 stays as is and 11/2 is rewritten by mult. numerator and denominator by 4 each.
