Given the Addition:
[tex]\frac{3}{8}+7\frac{5}{8}[/tex]You can find the sum as follows:
1. Covert the Mixed Number to an Improper Fraction:
- Multiply the Whole Number part by the denominator of the fraction.
- Add the result to the numerator.
- The denominator does not change.
Then:
[tex]7\frac{5}{8}=\frac{5+(7\cdot8)}{8}=\frac{5+56}{8}=\frac{61}{8}[/tex]2. Rewrite the Addition:
[tex]=\frac{3}{8}+\frac{61}{8}[/tex]3. Since the denominators are equal, you only need to add the numerators:
[tex]=\frac{3+61}{8}=\frac{64}{8}[/tex]4. Simplifying the fraction, you get:
[tex]=8[/tex]Hence, the answer is:
[tex]=8[/tex]
