Too add mixed numbers, first convert them to improper fractions:

34/5 + 53/10

Next, find a common denominator, which in this case is 10.

Convert 34/5 so that it has a denominator of 10 by multiplying the ENTIRE fraction by 2: 68/10

68/10 + 53/10 = 121/10

You can either give your answer in the form of an improper fraction: 121/10, or a mixed number 12 1/10
