6/3 + 2/3 = (6 + 2)/3:
4 + 3/8 - (6 + 2)/3
6 + 2 = 8:
4 + 3/8 - 8/3
Put 4 + 3/8 - 8/3 over the common denominator 24. 4 + 3/8 - 8/3 = (24×4)/24 + (3×3)/24 + (8 (-8))/24:
(24×4)/24 + (3×3)/24 + (8 (-8))/24
24×4 = 96:
96/24 + (3×3)/24 + (8 (-8))/24
3×3 = 9:
96/24 + 9/24 + (8 (-8))/24
8 (-8) = -64:
96/24 + 9/24 + (-64)/24
96/24 + 9/24 - 64/24 = (96 + 9 - 64)/24:
(96 + 9 - 64)/24
