First, convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions: $4 \frac{5}{6} = \frac{29}{6}$ and $2 \frac{5}{8} = \frac{21}{8}$. Find a common denominator, which is 24. Convert the fractions: $\frac{29}{6} = \frac{116}{24}$ and $\frac{21}{8} = \frac{63}{24}$. Add them: $\frac{116}{24} + \frac{63}{24} = \frac{179}{24}$. Convert back to a mixed number: $7 \frac{11}{24}$.
