Answer

13$\frac{7}{16}$

Work Step by Step

We start by adding the whole numbers: 11+2=13. In order to add or subtract fractions, we start by making a common denominator (bottom of the fraction). Thus, we multiply 3/8 by 2/2 to obtain: $\frac{6}{16}$+($\frac{1}{16}$)=$\frac{7}{16}$. We add the 13 to get an answer of 13$\frac{7}{16}$.
