52 5/8 because 49 + 3 = 52 and 2/8 + 3/8 = 5/8

Answer:

52 5/8

Explanation:

To add fractions, you have to make sure both fractions have a common denominator.

As you can see, the fractions have different denominators, so to make both denominators 8, we have to multiply 1/4 by two, which gives us 2/8.

Then, we just add like normal!

49 2/8+ 3 3/8 = 52 5/8!

Hope this helped! :)
