Use two rulers, or make two movable number lines.
Using the ruler, mark at the start, and at the point 1 2/3. Now at that point, measure again 1.56. The sum will be the distance from the final point to the original start point.

thanks, I am having a hard time figuring out how to do it on my computer. I am an online student, paper and pencil would be so much easier.
