Answer:

23/8

Explanation:

first you want to make the 2 2/5 a complete fraction

To do this multiply the whole two by 5 then add your numerater

same with the 1 3/8 as above

by now you should have 11/8+12/5

now find a common denominater

at this point it should be 55/40+60/40

Then add them which will give you 115/40

lastly simplify and you will get 23/8
