Answer:

87/100

Explanation:

First, you want to make both of the fractions have the same denominator, so that you can eventually add them together.

You can convert 5/10 into 50/100 by multiplying both the numerator and denominator by 10.

Then, you add 50/100 and 37/100 to get:

87/100

5/10 = 5 × 10/ 10 × 10 = 50/100

50/100 + 37/100

= 77/100
