Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3 (2/8 + 4/8) =

First simplify what is inside the parentheses

2/8+4/8 = 6/8

Replace with 6/8

2/3 (6/8) =

Then multiply

2*6 =12

3*8 = 24

12/24

Divide top and bottom by 12

1/2

In PEMDAS, you do what is in the parentheses first, therefore you solve (2/8 +4/8) first. You would end up with 6/8. Now you multiply 2/3 by 6/8. 2/3*6/8= 1/2 or .5. Hope this helps.
