Answer:

Explanation:

Let's find the LCM of 5 and 6. 5x6 is 30. So 1/5 times 6 to both numerator and denominator is 6/30. 1/6 is slightly different. 30 is 5 times 6. So 1/6 times 5 to both denominator and numerator is 5/30. Since 6/30 and 5/30 does not have a halfway point, let's multiply both by 2. It is 10/60 and 12/60. Midway point is 12+10/2 which is 11/60.
