Answer:

11 and 9/11

Explanation:

Convert to decimal form

8 and 7/11 + 3 and 2/11=

8.636363.... + 3.181818....=

11.818181.....

Now covert decimal back to fraction form:

11.818181....= 11 and 9/11

The second way to do it:

Convert 8 and 7/11 and 3 and 2/11 into improper fractions:

8*11 = 88+7=95/11

3*11=33+2=35/11

Now add them

35/11+95/11=130/11

Now covert back to a proper fraction

130 divided by 11= 11.818181.... or 11 and 9/11
