Answer:

5/3

Explanation:

When adding fractions, we know only to add the numerator. The numerator for both fractions is 5, so we can take 5+5=10. Now we know the numerator will be 10 to start.

Since the fractions also have the same denominator, finding a common denominator is unnecessary. That gives us 10/6.

From there, we can then choose to simplify the fraction. 10 and 6 have a LCF (least common factor) of 2, so we can divide both the numerator and the denominator by 2, giving us a simplified form of 5/3.

5/3 is an improper fraction, so it can also be converted to a mixed fraction as 1 and 2/3.

The answer you need here may vary based on your instructions
