Answer:

17/24


Step-by-step Explanation:


The total fraction of the pie eaten = fraction of pie Katelyn ate + fraction of pie Chad ate.

Total fraction of the pie eaten = 1/3 + 3/8

To add 2 fractions they should have the same denominator.

So, let's find the LCM of 3 & 8.

LCM of 3 & 8 = 24


Lily: 1/3 = 1*8/3*8 = 8/24

Chad: 3/8 = 3*3/8*3 = 9/24

8/24 +9/24 = 17/24


Total fraction of the pie eaten = 17/24
