Mariano is solving 1 2/6 + 6 3/6 . What is the result?(1 point)

Answer 1

The calculation of 1 2/6 + 6 3/6 is as follows:

1 2/6 can be simplified as 1 + 2/6, which equals 1 + 1/3 = 4/3.
Similarly, 6 3/6 can be simplified as 6 + 3/6, which equals 6 + 1/2 = 13/2.

Now, adding 4/3 and 13/2 requires finding a common denominator, which is 6.
4/3 can be converted to 8/6, and 13/2 can be converted to 39/6.

Thus, 8/6 + 39/6 equals (8 + 39)/6 = 47/6.

Therefore, the result is 47/6.

Answer 2

wrong

Answer 3

Apologies for the mistake.

To solve 1 2/6 + 6 3/6, we need to add the whole numbers separately and the fractions separately.

So, the result is 7 5/6.
