Answer:

23/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:  Convert the mixed numbers into improper fractions

5 1/3  +  6// i  1/6    becomes

16/3  +  37/6

Now use the common denominator of 6 to change the first fraction so it has a denominator of 6...

(16/3)(2/2)  +  37/6

32/6  +  37/6    

Now add the numerators...

69/6       both are multiples of 3, so reduce the fraction....

22/3       (69/3 = 22     9/3 = 3 )

Answer:

11 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

To add fractions they must share common denominators. Multiply the 1/3 by 2/2 to make its denominator become a 6.

  • 1/3 * 2/2 = 2/6

Now you can freely add 5 2/6 and 6 1/6 together. Add the numerators and keep the denominators the same.

  • 5 2/6 + 6 1/6 = 11 3/6

The 3/6 can be simplified to 1/2 by dividing 3/6 by 3/3.

The final answer is 11 1/2.
