The answer is 1 and 1/6. Here is the math. Convert 1/3 to sixths. 1/3 = 2/6 5/6 + 2/6 = 7/6 = 1 1/6
five sixths because it is more than half
Before you can add fractions, you first need to convert the fractions so they have common denominators. Two thirds is equal to four sixths, so now we can add the fractions that have common denominators. Four sixths and five sixths equals eleven sixths, or one and five sixths left over. Now, add your whole numbers...one, four and the one gained when we converted the fraction equals six and five sixths.
When you want to add fractions that have different denominators, you have to convert them into fractions that do have the same denominators. So for example, how much is a half plus a third? Both of these can be converted into sixths, so one half equals three sixths, and one third equals two sixths. Three sixths plus two sixths equals five sixths. That's the answer. If you have three fractions with different denominators, the procedure is the same. Convert all three into fractions with the same denominators, then add them.
1/2
The answer is 1 and 1/6. Here is the math. Convert 1/3 to sixths. 1/3 = 2/6 5/6 + 2/6 = 7/6 = 1 1/6
Oh yes, one third is quite a bit smaller than five sixths. To compare, we can convert one third into two sixths. So five sixths is fully three sixths (equal to one half) larger than a third.
five sixths because it is more than half
One half is three sixths and one-third is two sixths. 3+2=5

five-sixths
Yes. One sixth is one half of one third to be exact. Two-sixths are equal to one-third, three-sixths is a half, four-sixths is two-thirds, five-sixths is exactly what it is, and six-sixths is a whole.
Five and one third.
1 and one half
Negative one half
yes
