First add the whole numbers 3+5=8 

Then add the fraction: 2/3 +3/4, the Least common denominator is 12.

So the expression will be 8/12 +15/12= 23/12 or 1 11/12. 

1+8=9 +11/12

Finally, the answer is 9 11/12
Add the qhole nunbers 3+5=8 and the 2/3+3/4 the lcd is 12 so it will be 8/12+9/12= 17/12 or 1 5/12 8+1 5/12= 9 5/12
