2/4 + 6/8 = _________

1. Convert \(\frac{\mathrm{2} }{\mathrm{4} }\) to \(\frac{\mathrm{4} }{\mathrm{8} }\)
2. Add \(\frac{\mathrm{4} }{\mathrm{8} }\) + \(\frac{\mathrm{6} }{\mathrm{8} }\)= \(\frac{\mathrm{10} }{\mathrm{8} }\)
3. Simplify \(\frac{\mathrm{10} }{\mathrm{8} }\) to \(\frac{\mathrm{5} }{\mathrm{4} }\) (simplify by dividing numerator and denominator by 2).
So, \(\frac{\mathrm{2} }{\mathrm{4} }\) + \(\frac{\mathrm{6} }{\mathrm{8} }\) = \(\frac{\mathrm{5} }{\mathrm{4} }\)
