1 1/2 + 2/3 can be simplified by converting 1 1/2 into an improper fraction.
1 1/2 = (2*1 + 1)/2 = 3/2
Now, the expression becomes:
3/2 + 2/3
To add these fractions, we need to find a common denominator. The common denominator for 2 and 3 is 6.
Converting both fractions to have a denominator of 6:
(3/2)*(3/3) = 9/6
(2/3)*(2/2) = 4/6
Now, the expression becomes:
9/6 + 4/6 = 13/6
Therefore, 1 1/2 + 2/3 = 13/6.
