Answer:

13 3/10

Explanation:

first you add the whole numbers, that equals 13

now make the denominators the same by multiplying or dividing the numerator and denominator to an equivalent fraction, I divided 2/5 to 4/10

now you add the numerators and you have 13 13/10

make that a proper fraction and you have 14 3/10
