    12 3/8

    Step-by-step explanation:

    8-1/2+5-1/8

    8+5 - 1/2 - 1/8

    Lets get a common denominator of 8

    8+5 - 1/2 * 4/4 - 1/8

    8+5 - 4/8 - 1/8

    Combine the whole numbers and the fractions

    13 - 5/8

    Now we need to borrow from the whole number

    12 + 1 - 5/8

    12 + 8/8 - 5/8

    12 + 3/8

    12 3/8
