Answer:

9
(1)/(2)

Explanation:

Turn mixed numbers into improper fractions.

3
(5)/(6) =
(23)/(6)

5
(2)/(3) =
(17)/(3)

Make the denominator the same. The denominator would be 6. Multiply 3 by 2 and 17 by 2.

(17)/(3) =
(34)/(6)

Add the two fractions together.

(23)/(6) + (34)/(6) = (57)/(6)

Turn back into a mixed number.

9(3)/(6)

Simplify.

9(1)/(2)
