1/2 1/6 1/6
I have no idea what the "sum" of a fraction means.
To find the sum of two mixed numbers, turn the mixed numbers into improper fractions (multiply the base with the denominator and add the numerator), then add the two fractions. To add the two fractions, find the LCD (lowest common denominator) and add the two numerators, but leave the denominators the same.

1/10 , 3/10 , 6/10 . Their sum is (1+3+6)/10 = 10/10 = 1
If I had some fractions, I might. But since I don't, I won't.

The same way that you calculate the average for any other numbers. Sum the fractions and divide the total by the number of fractions.
find the lowest common denominator
First add all the fractions together. Then, divide this sum by the total number of fractions that were in the set. This quotient is your average fraction.
Numerators
To find the sum of two mixed numbers, turn the mixed numbers into improper fractions (multiply the base with the denominator and add the numerator), then add the two fractions. To add the two fractions, find the LCD (lowest common denominator) and add the two numerators, but leave the denominators the same.
the sum the sum
All fractions are rational numbers because irrational numbers can't be expressed as fractions
By using addition.
To determine whether the sum of two fractions with a common denominator is greater than, less than, or equal to 1, you need to add the numerators of the fractions together and compare the result to the common denominator. If the sum of the numerators is greater than the denominator, the sum of the fractions will be greater than 1. If the sum of the numerators is less than the denominator, the sum of the fractions will be less than 1. If the sum of the numerators is equal to the denominator, the sum of the fractions will be equal to 1.
