Answer:
[tex] \frac{23}{24} [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]2a + b[/tex]
[tex]a = \frac{5}{12} \\ b = \frac{1}{8} [/tex]
Substitute a = 5/12 and b = 1/8 in the expression.
[tex]2( \frac{5}{12} ) + \frac{1}{8} \\ \frac{5}{6} + \frac{1}{8} [/tex]
Our denominator must be 24. (LCM)
[tex] \frac{5 \times 4}{6 \times 4} + \frac{1 \times 3}{8 \times 3} \\ \frac{20}{24} + \frac{3}{24} \\ \frac{23}{24} [/tex]
