Answer:

11/24

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to add 1/3 and 1/8 together to solve this problem. To do this make 1/3 and 1/8 have a common denominator of 24.

Multiply 1/3 by 8/8 and 1/8 by 3/3.

  • 1/3 * (8/8) = 8/24
  • 1/8 * (3/3) = 3/24

Now add these two fractions together.

8/24 + 3/24 = 11/24

Since this fraction cannot be simplified further, Trevor has 11/24 of a baseball card collection.
