Answer:

${\huge\red{\fbox{{࿐αɴѕωєя࿐}}}}$

(1)/(3) + (1)/(5) + (1)/(6)

First you need to find the LCM of the denominators.

LCM of 3, 5, 6 = 30

$(1)/(3) * (10)/(10) \\ = (10)/(30)$

$(1)/(5) * (6)/(6) \\ = (6)/(30)$

$(1)/(6) * (5)/(5) \\ = (5)/(30)$

Now, since the denominators are equal you can easily add them.

$(10)/(30) + (6)/(30) + (5)/(30) \\ = (10 + 6 + 5)/(30) \\ = (21)/(30) \\ = (7)/(10) \\ = 0.7$

✏ Answer = 7/10 in fraction form & 0.7 in decimal form.
