Answer:Andrew spent 2 2/3 hours studying in all

Explanation:

hours spent studying for his science exam=s 1 1/6 hours

hours spent studying for his history exam= 1 1/2

Total hours spent studying both subjects =1 1/6 hours+1 1/2 hours

add whole numbers to whole numbers and fraction to fraction

1 1/6 hours+1 1/2 hours

=2 1+3 /6

=2 4/6 =2 2/3 hours
