Answer:
1 and 1/16
Step-by-step explanation:
5/8 can also equal 10/16 by multiplying the numerator and the denominator by 2 so now the problem is 10/16+7/16
10+7=17 and 16 moves over so now its 17/16 and thats improper so you see how many times 16 goes into 17 and its once and there is one extra so the answer is 1 and 1/16
