Answer: 3 13/24

Explanation:

First off we have an issue with the problem due to denominators not being the same

So we need to find a common denominator

The common denominator would be 24 for 6 and 8

Then we must multiply the numerator 1 by 4 and the numerator 3 by 3

Our new problem would look like

1 4/24 + 2 9/24

Now we add it all up

3 13/24
