To solve the expression \( \frac{1}{7} + \frac{8}{2} \), we can simplify step-by-step:
Simplify \( \frac{8}{2} \): \[ \frac{8}{2} = 4 \]
Now, we can rewrite the expression: \[ \frac{1}{7} + 4 \]
To add these, we need a common denominator. The common denominator for 7 and 1 is 7. Thus, we convert 4 to a fraction: \[ 4 = \frac{4 \times 7}{1 \times 7} = \frac{28}{7} \]
Now add the fractions: \[ \frac{1}{7} + \frac{28}{7} = \frac{1 + 28}{7} = \frac{29}{7} \]
So, the final result is: \[ \frac{29}{7} \]
