    5/6+1/2=1 1/3

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Find the least common multiple.

    6:6,12

    2:2,4,6,8,10,12

    Multiply the numerator and denominator by what number gets to the lcm (12).

    5/6 5*2=10 6*2=12

    10/12

    1/2 1*6=6 2*6=12

    Add the new fractions

    10/12+6/12=16/12

    Turn it into a mixed number by dividing 16/12.

    1 4/12

    Simplify 1 4/12 by dividing the numerator and denominator by 4

    1 4/12 = 1 1/3
