Answer:

1 17/18 is the answer

Explanation:

Solving the fraction parts

7/9+7/6

Find the LCD of 7/9 and 7/6 and rewrite to solve with the equivalent fractions.

LCD = 18

14/18+21/18=35/18

Simplifying the fraction part, 35/18,

35/18=1 17/18

This is how you simplify:

Applying the fractions formula for addition,

(7×6)+(7×9) / 9×6

42+63 / 54

=105/54

Simplifying 105/54, the answer is

=1 17/18
