Definition of algebraic expression -

An expression obtained by a finite number of the fundamental operations of algebra upon symbols representing numbers.

Five times the sum of a number and eleven, divided by three times the sum of the number and eight.

Let the number be x.

Five times the sum of a number and eleven means 5 multiplied to the sum of x and 11. In expression this will be written as:

5(x + 11)

Three times the sum of the number and eight means 3 multiplied to the sum of x and 8. In expression this will be written as:

3(x + 8)

So, the overall algebraic expression will be: $\frac{5(x+11)}{3(x+8)}$
