To solve $\frac{5}{6} + \frac{3}{8}$, we need to find a common denominator between the two fractions.

1. The denominators are 6 and 8. The least common denominator (LCD) of 6 and 8 is 24.
2. Convert both fractions to have a denominator of 24: $\frac{5}{6} = \frac{5 \times 4}{6 \times 4} = \frac{20}{24}$ $\frac{3}{8} = \frac{3 \times 3}{8 \times 3} = \frac{9}{24}$
3. Now add the two fractions: $\frac{20}{24} + \frac{9}{24} = \frac{20 + 9}{24} = \frac{29}{24}$

The result is $\frac{29}{24}$, which is an improper fraction. As a mixed number, it is: $1 \frac{5}{24}$
