Answer:

Wayne bought 72 blueberries.

Step-by-step explanation:

To combine the fractions, convert all of the fractions to a denominator of 24.

3/8 * 3/3 = 9/24

1/6 * 4/4 = 4/24

5/12 * 2/2 = 10/24

Now add together the fractions

9/24 + 4/24 + 10/24 = 23/24

He used 23/24 of his blueberries, or 69 of them.

To find the total amount of blueberries, divide 69 by 23, then multiply that number b 24.

69 / 23 = 3

3 * 24 = 72

Wayne bought 72 blueberries.
