Answer 1

The answer is

`11 (3)/(6)` or 11.5

or in simplest form

11½

Explanation:

5⅓+6⅙

`= (16)/(3) + (37)/(6)`

Taking LCM which is 6

`( (16)/(3) + (37)/(6) )/(6)`

`(2(16) + 1 * 37)/(6)`

`(32 + 37)/(6)`

`= (69)/(6)`

`= 11 (3)/(6)`

11½ in simplest form or 11.5

Answer 2

11.5 or 11 1/2 (eleven and a half)

Explanation:

so we can add the whole numbers together

5 + 6 = 11

then we are left with the fractions

1/3 + 1/6

we need to make both sides equal so we multiply both the upper and lower part of 1/3 by 2

which gives us 2/6

then you simply add 2/6 and 1/6 together which is 3/6

3/6 can be simplified to 1/2 or 0.5

just add that back to the original 11 you added up and your final answer is

11.5 or 11 1/2 (eleven and a half)
