The fraction has a denominator of 24

Borrowing a whole number is subtracting 1 from 8:

8-1 = 7

The number 8 becomes the number 7.

Using the denominator of the fraction, the borrowed one becomes 24/24

Now you need to add that to the existing fraction: 24/24 + 10/24 = 34/24

Now add that to the whole number 7

Answer = 7 34/24
