Correct answer only ! i cannot retake factor the expression completely over the complex numbers.

Your answer is correct. Good job.

The answer to 5/8 + 7/8 is 12/8, and in mixed numerals, 1  4/8

Step-by-step explanation:

First off, you must look at your given fraction. Lets use the example, 5/8 + 7/8. Because they have the same denominator, it makes it super easy for us to add them. All you have to do is add the top numbers and the denominator stays the same.

You should have 12/8 as your result. Since the numerator (the top number) is larger than the denominator, you must change the fraction to a mixed number.

To do that, first find how many of the denominator there are in the numerator. With our example, there is only one 8 in 12. You have now found your whole number!! Well done!

To find the numerator of the new fraction, you must substract the denominator from the numerator (12 - 8). You should have ended with 4.

Your final answer should look a little something like this -> 1 4/8.

Do you need any help with simplifying fractions?

Hope my explanation wasn't TOO confusing! Please don't be afraid to tell me if it was!
