Answer:

10 29/30

Explanation:

Add just the integers first: 5 + 3 + 1 = 9

Convert the fractions so that they have the same demoninator. I chose 30 as the denominator, since 2*3*5 = 30

1/2 = 15/30

2/3 = 20/30

4/5 = 24/30

Add the fractions to find 59/30. That reduces to 1 29/30

Add (9+ 1 + 29/30) = 10 29/30 [ or 10.9666666 . . .
