1. 1 1/6 +1 5/6=2 6/6

6/6=1 whole since you divide 6 by 6.

2+1=3

That is one way by adding 1/6 and 5/6 making a whole 1 and 1 and get 2 =1 whole=3

2. 1 2/3 + 1 1/6= 2 6/6

2/3=4/6 = 1/6= 2 6/6

2 + 1=3

thats one other way. this was my own problem i needed to solve and kinda get it now.

i hope you do to!

No. Each mixed number is made of a whole number and a fraction. When you add them, you have the sum of two whole numbers and two fractions. Since each whole number must be at least ' 1 ', the sum of two whole numbers must be at least ' 2 ', and the two fractions will always make it more than ' 2 '.
