The initial expression is:


(2)/(6)+(3)/(4)

We need to use the addition of fractions rule, and we obtain:


\begin{gathered} (2)/(6)+(3)/(4)=(2\cdot4+6\cdot3)/(6\cdot4)=(8+18)/(24)=(26)/(24)=(2\cdot13)/(2\cdot12)=(2)/(2)\cdot(13)/(12)=1\cdot(13)/(12) \\ \Rightarrow(2)/(6)+(3)/(4)=(13)/(12) \end{gathered}

The answer is 13/12
