To add mixed numbers, we first need to convert them into improper fractions.

3 and 3/4 can be written as 15/4 and 2 and 1/6 can be written as 13/6.

Now, we can add the fractions:

15/4 + 13/6

To add these fractions, we need to find a common denominator. The least common multiple of 4 and 6 is 12.

15/4 can be converted to 45/12 by multiplying the numerator and denominator by 3.

13/6 can be converted to 26/12 by multiplying the numerator and denominator by 2.

Now, we can add the fractions:

45/12 + 26/12 = 71/12

This is an improper fraction, so we can convert it back to a mixed number:

71/12 = 5 11/12

Therefore, the answer is C. 5 11/12.
