Answer:

7 + (19/20), assuming the rewritten expression is correct

Explanation:

The term "2/2\10" is unclear. I'll assume it was meant to be 2/10

The restated problem would become:

2 2/10 + 5 3/4

Rewrite the numbers as: 2 + (2/10) + 5 + (3/4)

Add the whole numbers: 7 + (2/10) + (3/4)

Convert the fractions to a common denominator. I'll use 40 [10*4].

7 + (8/40) + (30/40)

Add the fractions: 7 + (38/40)

Simplify: 7 + (19/20)
