[tex]5\times8=40\\40+7=47\\put~it~over~8\\\frac{47}{8}[/tex]
Improper fractions are when the numerator is greater than the numerator 
the given fraction is a mixed fraction where it has both a whole number and a fraction 
[tex]5 \frac{7}{8} [/tex]
whole number is 5 
fraction is 7/8
when bringing it to an improper fraction we need to convert the whole numbers to fractions as well
denominator is 8. then 5 whole numbers means 5*8 = 40
then the 5 whole numbers as a fraction = [tex]\frac{40}{8} [/tex]
then when we add the 2 fractions 
[tex] \frac{40}{8} + \frac{7}{8} = \frac{47}{8} [/tex]
therefore improper fraction is 
[tex]\frac{47}{8}[/tex]
