    The sum of a number and 5 divided by 8.

    Let's take this algebraic expression in parts.

    Part 1: The phrase a number means an arbitrary variable, let's call it x.

    Part 2: The sum of a number and 5 means we add 5 to the number x
    x + 5

    Part 3: Next, we divide this expression by 8
    (x + 5)/8
