What happens here

With the fractions now sharing a common denominator, the mixed numbers are ready for addition. First, the whole number parts are added together: 11 plus 8 equals 19. Next, the fraction parts are added: 9/16 plus 10/16 equals 19/16. This yields an intermediate sum of 19 and 19/16.

Goal: Add whole numbers and fractions independently.

but sometimes your drunk buddy gives you 5/8. Don't worry about it. I got you. Multiply by two. Make that 10/16. It'll make your life easier, I promise. Now you got 19 boop and you got 19 and you got 16ths. Now you got 19 19/16ths, but that's an improper fraction, bro. So, convert that mug. One and 3/16ths. Just add that over there
