Answer:

11/8 or, 1 and 3/8

Explanation:

First, we have to make both the denominators the same. In this case, we can multiply 3/4 by 2, to make 4, the denominator, into 8. What we do to the denominator, we must do to the numerator! So, we multiply 3 by 2, and get 6!

Now we have, 5/8 + 6/8, which equals 11/8! Which can also be simplified to 1 and 3/8 (because the numerator is larger than the denominator)

Hope this helps! :)
