That would be 1 1/2 because 7/7 equals 1 whole and 4/8 can be reduced to 1/2 (4 divided by 2 and 8 divided by 4).

I believe you can simply look at it as this:
4/8 = 1/2 and 7/7 = 1
Therefore, you get 1/2 + 1 which then equals 1 and 1/2 (one and a half). As an improper fraction, it would be 3/2.

When adding fractions with different denominators, the KEY is to find a common denominator and then change them both into it.
For example, suppose I want to add 1/2 + 1/3. To find a common denominator, the easiest way is to multiply the two denominators together. Multiplying 2 x 3 gives us 6.
Converting 1/2 into sixths would give us 3/6. Converting 1/3 into sixths would give us 2/6. Adding 3/6 + 2/6 would give us 5/6.
