Answer: 17/18
Step-by-step explanation: Notice that 1/9 and 5/6 are unlike fractions. Our first step when adding unlike fractions is to get a common denominator.
The common denominator of 9 and 6 will be the least common multiple of 9 and 6 which is 18.
To get a 19 in the denominator of 1/9, we multiply the numerator and the denominator by 2 which gives us 2/18.
To get an 18 in the denominator of 5/6, we multiply the numerator and the denominator by 3 which gives us 15/18.
Now we're adding like fractions so we simply add the numerators 2 + 15 gives us 17 and keep the same denominator.
Therefore, 1/9 + 5/6 = 17/18.
