In number form, your question is:
14 5/9 + 6 7/9 = ?
We can now understand this easier, and answer it.
Add your whole numbers first to not get confused.
14 + 6 = 20.
Now add your fractions.
5/9 + 7/9 = 12/9, = 1 3/9.
Add 1 to your whole number.
20 + 1 = 21.
You are left with 21 3/9.
Your answer is 21 3/9.
I hope this helps!
