Convert the 5 into an improper fraction.
\[5*5 = 25/5\]
Multiply that by converting the one to an improper and adding it to 3/5
\[5/5 + 3/5 = 8/5\]
Multiply the improper fractions.

Nicely done on the conversion!
Now, convert the 3 and 4 to an improper.
Denominator = /24\[24*3 = 72/24 , 24*4= 96/24\]
Add that with your converted and solve for the solution.
