Given: The fractions below


1(1)/(5)+(5)/(6)

To Determine: The addition of the given fractions

Solution


\begin{gathered} 1(1)/(5)=(1*5+1)/(5)=(6)/(5) \\ Therefore \\ 1(1)/(5)+(5)/(6) \\ becomes \\ (6)/(5)+(5)/(6) \end{gathered}
\begin{gathered} (6)/(5)+(5)/(6) \\ lcm=30 \\ (6)/(5)+(5)/(6) \\ =(36+25)/(30) \\ =(61)/(30) \\ =2(1)/(30) \end{gathered}

Hence, the solution of the given fractions is 2 1/30
