1 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

the answer is 1 and 1/3 or just 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

1/8 + 3/8 = 1/4 when reduced its 1/2

1/2 + 5/6= 1 and 1/3, because to solve this problem, the denominators have to be the same. since 5/6 has a denominator of 6, and 2 can go into 6. the denominator of 1/2has to be 6.

step 2

you're going to multiply the numerator and the denominator by 3, when you do, you will get the answer of:

[tex]\frac{1x3}{2 x 3}=\frac{3}{6}[/tex]  

step 3: add 3/6 and 5/6

[tex]\frac{3}{6} +\frac{5}{6} =\frac{8}{6}[/tex] when reduced, it [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]  which can be left as it is, or be reduced again to, [tex]1\frac{1}{3}[/tex].
