Answer:

3/4 + -5/8 = 1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

When adding fractions, you always need to find a common denominator. 4 and 8 share a common denominator of 8.

You multiply 3/4 by 2/2 and get 6/8.

When adding negative numbers, it is the same as subtracting.

6/8  + (-5/8)  =

6/8 - 5/8 = 1/8

So 1/8 is the answer.
