Length and time are different fundamental dimensions, and neither of them can be converted into the other one. If they could be converted back and forth, then you could easily tell someone how many meters old you are, or how many minutes high your house is.

5/8th + 8/5th is easier to work out if they are converted to the same fractions, they can both easily be converted to 40ths. 5/8th = 25/40ths 8/5ths = 64/40ths. So 25/40ths + 64/40ths = 89/40ths, which is 2 and 9/40ths.
