get a common denominator, in this case, we can use 40
multiply the numerator and denominator of each fraction to get the common denominator equivilent
1/2*20= 20/40
3/5*8= 24/40
1/8*5= 5/40
now add the numerators together
20+24+5= 49/40 or 1 and 9/40
add the whole numbers
24+32+44= 100
add the previous numbers
101 and 9/40
Easy, first change them into improper fractions,

24 1/2= [tex] \frac{49}{2} [/tex]

32 3/5= [tex] \frac{163}{5} [/tex]

44 1/8= [tex] \frac{353}{8} [/tex]

Now, find a common denominator to add them up. (40)

[tex] \frac{49}{2}* \frac{20}{20} = \frac{980}{40} [/tex]

[tex] \frac{163}{5}* \frac{8}{8} = \frac{1304}{40} [/tex]

[tex] \frac{353}{8}* \frac{5}{5}= \frac{1765}{40} [/tex]

Add them up

[tex] \frac{4049}{40} [/tex], or in mixed number form 101 9/40.
