\[ \frac{5}{4} + \frac{16}{3} = \frac{79}{12} = 6.58\overline{3} \]

The sum can be computed by rewriting each term over a common denominator, where the least common denominator of \(\frac{5}{4}\) and \(\frac{16}{3}\) is \(12\). \[ \begin{aligned} \frac{5}{4} + \frac{16}{3} &= \frac{5 \cdot 3}{4 \cdot 3} + \frac{16 \cdot 4}{3 \cdot 4} \\ &= \frac{15 + 64}{12} \\ &= \frac{79}{12} \end{aligned} \]
