What is one fifth plus two sixth?
6/30 + 10/30 = 16/30 or 8/15
What is one sixth plus two fifths?
one-sixth plus two-fifths is changed to 5/30 plus 12/30 because you must find the common denominator then add them. So the answer is 17/30 which is as low as it will go.2/5 + 1/6 = 12/30 + 5/30 = 17/30
