You have walked 5/6 miles

Miles Chan · Answer 2

5/6 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

When adding fractions with different denominators, we have to first find the LCM of the two denominators, and then multiply the fraction so that the denominator is the LCM.

The LCM of 2 and 3 is 6.

Thus, our two fractions become 2/6 and 3/6. Adding them gives us 5/6.
