That question is impossible to answer unless the correct parenthesis are written out as desired.

It could be (5/2) + (7/24) + (31/26). In which case, the answer would be 1243/312, or 3.984

It could also be ((5/2 + 7) / (24 + 31)) / 26. Which equals 19/2860, or 0.006

Or any other orientation.

As you can see, parenthesis are integral in solving equations and properly doing mathematics!
