hope it helped you sorry if it is wrong

Answer 2

Answer:

$\frac{5}{12} + x = 2 \frac{3}{8 } \\ 2 \frac{3}{8} = \frac{19}{8} \\ \frac{5}{12} + x = \frac{19}{8} \\ x = \frac{19}{8} - \frac{5}{12} \\ lcm = 24 \\ \frac{5}{12} \times \frac{2}{2} = \frac{10}{24} \\ \frac{19}{8} \times \frac{3}{3} = \frac{57}{24} \\ x = \frac{57}{24} - \frac{10}{24} \\ x = \frac{57 - 10}{24} \\ x = \frac{47}{24}$
