Answer:

2 9/14

Explanation:

first we must make 1/6 and 3/7 have common demoniaters! (or however u spell it)

1/6 x 7/7 = 7/42

3/7 x 6/6 = 18/42

7/42 + 18/42 = 25/42

2/7 x 6/6 = 12/42

25/42 + 12/42 = 37/42

37/42 + 7/42 = 44/42

44/42 + 18/42 = 62/42

62/42 + 12/42 = 74/42

5/7 x 6/6 = 30/42

74/42 + 30/42 = 104/42

104/42+7/42 = 111/42

111/42 = 2 9/14
