$$\frac{ 8 }{ 6 } + \frac{ 7 }{ 2 }$$

$\frac{29}{6}\approx 4.833333333$

Reduce the fraction $\frac{8}{6}$ to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out $2$.

$$\frac{4}{3}+\frac{7}{2}$$

Least common multiple of $3$ and $2$ is $6$. Convert $\frac{4}{3}$ and $\frac{7}{2}$ to fractions with denominator $6$.

$$\frac{8}{6}+\frac{21}{6}$$

Since $\frac{8}{6}$ and $\frac{21}{6}$ have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{8+21}{6}$$

Add $8$ and $21$ to get $29$.

$$\frac{29}{6}$$

$\frac{29}{2 \cdot 3} = 4\frac{5}{6} = 4.833333333333333$
