To solve this problem, we'll first find the sum of the whole numbers 1 + 2 = 3.
Next, we'll add the fractions together.
1/10 + 2 6/7
To add these fractions, we need to find a common denominator. The least common multiple of 10 and 7 is 70.
1/10 = (1/10) * (7/7) = 7/70
2 6/7 = (2 * 7 + 6)/7 = 20/7
Now we can add the fractions:
7/70 + 20/7
To add these fractions, we need to find a common denominator. The least common multiple of 70 and 7 is 70.
7/70 + 20/7 = (7/70) * (1/1) + (20/7) * (10/10)
= 7/70 + 200/70
= (7 + 200)/70
= 207/70
Now we can express this fraction as a mixed number.
207 divided by 70 equals 2 with a remainder of 37.
So the mixed number is 2 37/70.
Therefore, 1 1/10 + 2 6/7 = <<1+2+37/70=3 37/70>>3 37/70. Answer: \boxed{3\frac{37}{70}}.
