Answer:
5 5/6
Step-by-step explanation:
Change them into improper fractions. Multiply the denominator by the whole number and then add the numerator. Put that number over the denominator.
2 X 3 = 6 3 X 2 = 6
6 + 1 = 7 6 + 1 = 7
7/3 7/2
New expression: 7/3 + 7/2
Find a common denominator. Both denominators can go into 6.
14/6 + 21/6 = 35/6
Change this back into a mixed number by dividing.
