To add the two lengths of the tables, convert both measurements to the same unit. Let's convert them both to inches.
7 feet and 7 inches is equal to 7 * 12 + 7 = <<7*12+7=91>>91 inches.
6 feet and 9 inches is equal to 6 * 12 + 9 = <<6*12+9=81>>81 inches.
Now, we can add the two lengths together: 91 + 81 = <<91+81=172>>172 inches.
Therefore, the total length of the two tables is 172 inches.
