Answer:

5/6

Explanation:

When adding fractions, you must ensure the denominator is the same in both fractions.

In this case, the 3 can be multiplied by 2 to equal 6, the other denominator.

When multiplying fractions to create a common denominator, you must multiply the both the numerator and the denominator by the same value, to ensure that the fraction is still equivalent.

2/3 × 2/2 = (2×2)/(3×2) = 4/6

Replace 2/3 with its equivalent 4/6.

Now you will add the numerators together.

1/6 + 4/6 = (1+4)/6 = 5/6

Your final answer is 5/6
