Answer:

10 1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

3+ 5/8 +6+1/2

pretend that 3 an 6 has a denominator which is 1

3/1 +5/8+6/1 +1/2

find the common denominator which is 8

multiply by 8 for 3/1 = (3)(8)/(1)(8)=24/8

multiply by 8 for 6/1= (6)(8)/(1)(8)=48/8

multiply by 4 for 1/2=(1)(4)/(2)(4)=4/8

24/8+5/8+ 48/8+4/8

29/8+52/8

29+52= 81

answer:

81/8 or 10 1/8
