Several trucks were used to transport the cargo. On one of them 6/19 load was put, and on the second 8/19 load. What part of the cargo were transported by two cars?

1. Let’s calculate what part of the cargo was transported by both vehicles together, if from the problem statement we know that 6/19 of the total cargo was loaded onto the first vehicle, and 8/19 of the total cargo was loaded onto the second vehicle. To do this, we need to add these two values. (When adding two fractions with the same denominator, you must add the numerators and leave the denominator unchanged).
6/19 + 8/19 = (6 + 8) / 19 = 14/19 part of the load.
Answer: 14/19 of the total available cargo was transported by two vehicles.
