Answer
$\frac{5}{4}$
Work Step by Step
$\frac{5}{8} + \frac{5}{8}$
The sum of two fractions with same denominators is the sum of their numerators over the common denominator.
$\frac{5+5}{8}$ = $\frac{10}{8}$
Since 2 is the greatest common factor of 10 and 8, divide numerator and denominator by 2
$\frac{5*2}{4*2}$ = $\frac{5}{4}$
