$$\frac{ 2 }{ 3 } + \frac{ 1 }{ 8 }$$

$\frac{19}{24}\approx 0.791666667$

Least common multiple of $3$ and $8$ is $24$. Convert $\frac{2}{3}$ and $\frac{1}{8}$ to fractions with denominator $24$.

$$\frac{16}{24}+\frac{3}{24}$$

Since $\frac{16}{24}$ and $\frac{3}{24}$ have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{16+3}{24}$$

Add $16$ and $3$ to get $19$.

$$\frac{19}{24}$$

$\frac{19}{2 ^ {3} \cdot 3} = 0.7916666666666666$
