Let's solve the expression:

\[
\frac{25}{19} + \frac{2}{38}
\]

First, we'll find a common denominator. The least common denominator (LCD) of 19 and 38 is 38.

- Rewrite \(\frac{25}{19}\) with a denominator of 38:
\[
\frac{25}{19} = \frac{25 \times 2}{19 \times 2} = \frac{50}{38}
\]

Now, the expression becomes:
\[
\frac{50}{38} + \frac{2}{38} = \frac{50 + 2}{38} = \frac{52}{38}
\]

Next, simplify \(\frac{52}{38}\) by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 2:
\[
\frac{52}{38} = \frac{52 \div 2}{38 \div 2} = \frac{26}{19}
\]

Thus, the simplified result is:

\[
\frac{26}{19}
\]
