Hey there!
5/8 + 14 = ?
We can say 14 is equal to 14/1 beause it doesn't have a denominator and we will need to solve for your equation
14 * 8 = 112 (upcoming numerator for now)
8 * 1 = 8 (upcoming denominator for now)
5 stays alone
New equation 5 + 112 / 8
5 + 112 = 117 (numerator)
8 = 8 (demominator)
Answer: 117/8 (if you're looking for the improper fraction version) ; 14 5/8 (if you're looking for the mixed number version) ; 14.625 (if you're looking for the decimal version of it)
⬆ ANY one of these choices SHOULD work
Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
