Question

chip is a robot that follows commands to move on a number line. for each set of commands, help chip find its new location. command 2: start at \\(\frac{1}{3}\\). move \\(\frac{1}{8}\\) to the right. first, choose a common denominator for \\(\frac{1}{3}\\) and \\(\frac{1}{8}\\). 24 next, use the common denominator 24 to rewrite the command. new command 2: start at \\(\frac{?}{24}\\). move \\(\frac{?}{24}\\) to the right.

Explanation:

Step1: Rewrite $\frac{1}{3}$ with denominator 24

$\frac{1}{3} = \frac{1 \times 8}{3 \times 8} = \frac{8}{24}$

Step2: Rewrite $\frac{1}{8}$ with denominator 24

$\frac{1}{8} = \frac{1 \times 3}{8 \times 3} = \frac{3}{24}$

Answer:

Start at $\frac{8}{24}$. Move $\frac{3}{24}$ to the right.
