7/8 + 5/6
Find the least common denominator
8- 8, 16, 24...
6 - 6, 12, 18, 24
24 seems to be the least common denominator
We know that 8x3 = 24 so 7x3=21 and 6x4=24 so 5x4=20 (whatever we do to the denominator, we do to the numerator)
Now the fractions are:
21/24 + 20/24
Add the numerators and keep the denominator of 24 the same.
(21+20)/24 = 41/24 = 1 17/24
Final answer is 1 17/24

What does two and three-eighths plus one and seven-eighths equal?
Two and three-eighths plus one and seven-eighths equals four and two-eighths, which can be to four and one-fourth. Here's how to find the answer. First, you add the two whole numbers together, giving you three. Next, since you are adding two fractions with the same denominator, you add the numerators together, which gives you ten eighths. You then convert that to one and two eighths and add the one to three which is four. Finally, you divide both the numerator and the denominator by two. The final answer is four and one-fourth.
