Question

Write the answer in simplest form

Answer 1

57/40

Explanation:

So we need to find the LCD, or the least common denominator. The LCD is 40. Now, we do a transition to find the new numerator.

`(4)/(5) =(x)/(40) \\\\\\frac{5}{8} = (x)/(40)`

The new equation is this:

`(32)/(40) +(25)/(40)`

Now we use our common sense. 32+25=57

57/40.
