7/8 is the right answer. First you had to add by the fraction, and it gave us, [tex]\frac{5}{8}+ \frac{2}{8}[/tex]. Since the denominators are equal, then you combine by the fraction. And it gave us, [tex]\frac{5+2}{8}[/tex]. Finally, you had to add the numbers, and it gave us the answer is 5+2=7 or 7/8 is the right answer. Hope this helps! And thank you for posting your question at here on brainly, and have a great day. -Charlie
