ANSWER

11 1/6 or 11.17

Step-by-step explanation

We want to simplify the expressions given:


6(1)/(2)/3+9

To do this, we follow BODMAS and solve the division first:


\begin{gathered} (6(1)/(2))/(3)+9 \\ =((13)/(2))/(3)+9 \\ =(13)/(6)+9 \end{gathered}

Now, add:


\begin{gathered} 2(1)/(6)+9 \\ =11(1)/(6)or\text{ 11.17} \end{gathered}

That is the simplification.
