Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

8 hours and 35 minutes can be rewritten as the mixed fraction 8 35/60.

You can reduce this fraction by dividing the numerator and denominator by 5.

35/5 = 7

60/5 = 12

So, 35/60 = 7/12

Now add 8 to your reduced fraction.

8 + 7/12 = 8 7/12

Hope this helped!
