Answer: 27/12 or 2 3/12

Step-by-step explanation: First off we would need to find a common denominator, so all the fractions could be added together easily, and we could use a denominator of 12 because 6 times 2 equals 12, 4 times 3 equals 12, and 3 times 4 equals 12. So 5/6 would become 10/12, 3/4 would become 9/12, and 2/3 would become 8/12. So adding them all together would give you a sum of 27/12 or 2 3/12. Hope this helped!
