To add these fractions, we first need to make sure they have a common denominator. In this case, the least common multiple of 9 and 8 is 72.
Rewriting the fractions with a common denominator:
[tex] \frac{4 \times 8}{9 \times 8} + \frac{3 \times 9}{8 \times 9} [/tex][tex] \frac{32}{72} + \frac{27}{72} [/tex]
Now that the fractions have a common denominator, we can add them:
[tex] \frac{32 + 27}{72} [/tex][tex] \frac{59}{72} [/tex]
Therefore, [tex] \frac{4}{9} + \frac{3}{8} = \frac{59}{72} [/tex]
