Question
The mathematical expression shown in the image is:

\[
\frac{6 + 10}{7 - 5} + 37 - 53 = ?
\]

### Steps to Solve:

1. **Calculate the numerator and denominator of the fraction:**
   - Numerator: \(6 + 10 = 16\)
   - Denominator: \(7 - 5 = 2\)

2. **Divide the results:**
   - \( \frac{16}{2} = 8\)

3. **Complete the equation:**
   \[
   8 + 37 - 53
   \]

4. **Perform the addition and subtraction:**
   - \(8 + 37 = 45\)
   - \(45 - 53 = -8\)

So, the solution to the expression is \(-8\).
