1135

Explanation:

147=37
Then, we do 37+35.
In order to do that, we have to make the denominators of 37 and 35 the same. (Denominator is the bottom number.)
The closest multiple of 5 and 7 is 35 so we will use 35 as the new denominator.
37=1535 and 35=2135
2135+1535=3635
Now we will change it to a mixed number.
3635=1135
