Best Answer

5/9 + 1/6

First find the common denominator

You can multiply both the 9 and the 6 to make 18. (9x2) (6x3)

Because you multiply the denominator, you also have to multiple the numerator.

5x2=10 and 1x3=3

You now have 10/18 + 3/18

Now add the numerator

10+3=13

Your answer to the added numerator goes over the common denominator.

13/18.

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?

1/9=0.111

5/6=0.833

0.833+0.111=0.944

Or

1/9= 2/18

5/6= 15/18

15/18+2/18= 17/18
