Answer
3$\frac{1}{3}$
Work Step by Step
We start by subtracting the whole numbers: $8-5=3$. In order to add or subtract fractions, we start by making a common denominator (bottom of the fraction). Thus, we multiply 1/2 by 3/3: $\frac{5}{6}-$($\frac{3}{6}$)=$\frac{2}{6}$. We add the 3 to get an answer of 3$\frac{1}{3}$.
