$? = 63.975$ $? = 63.975$ , or $63 \frac{39}{40}$ $63 39/40$

$25 \frac{3}{8}$ $25 3/8$ + $38 \frac{3}{5}$ $38 3/5$ = ?

First, let's convert the fractions into decimals. Ignore the whole numbers for now.

$\frac{3}{8}$ $3/8$ is $3$ $3$ divided by $8$ $8$ . Divide accordingly. You get $0.375$ $0.375$ .

$\frac{3}{5}$ $3/5$ is $3$ $3$ divided by $5$ $5$ . Divide accordingly. You get $0.6$ $0.6$ .

Now, include these converted fractions with their whole numbers:

$25 \frac{3}{8}$ $25 3/8$ + $38 \frac{3}{5}$ $38 3/5$ = ?
$25.375 + 38.600$ $25.375 + 38.600$ = ?

Add accordingly. You get:

$? = 63.975$ $? = 63.975$ , or $63 \frac{39}{40}$ $63 39/40$
