Given expression is


10 (3)/(7) + 19 (5)/(9)

Now convert mixed fraction as improper fraction as


10 (3)/(7) + 19 (5)/(9) = (10*7 + 3)/(7) + (19*9+5)/(9)

= (73)/(7) + (176)/(9)

= (73*9 + 176 * 7)/(63)

= (657 + 1232)/(63) = (1889)/(63)
Now we can convert
(1889)/(63 ) = 29 (62)/(63)

So the answer is
29 \frac{62}63}
