    First piece of pie = 15/18

    Second piece of pie = 13/6.

    We need to find the total value.

    In order to find the total value, we need to add both fractions.

    Total value = First piece of pie + Second piece of pie.

    =15/18 + 13/6.

    In order to add those fractions, we need to find the common denominators.

    We have denominators 18 and 6.

    Common denominator of 18 and 6 is 18.

    So, we need to multiply second fraction 13/6 by 3 in top and bottom to make the denominator of second fraction equals 18.

    Therefore, 15/18 + 13/6 = 15/18 + 13*3/6*3

    =15/18 + 39/18.

    = (15+39) / 18.

    =54/18.

    Therefore, Fiona had 54/18 in total.
