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.

Oh, dude, math time! So, two thirds plus four sixths is like... drumroll... two! Yeah, you heard me right. When you add those fractions together, you get two. Easy peasy lemon squeezy.
When you simplify four sixths (4/6), you get two thirds (2/3), making this problem easier. Since both fractions now have the common denominators of 3, you just add the numerators together to get four thirds (4/3), or one and one third (1 1/3).
to get this answer you need to turn them both into sixths and add them 1 thied is 2 sixths and 1 half is 3 sixths add them and you get5 sixths,which leaves 1 sixth to be the answer.The answer is 1 sixth.
1 and 1/6 or 7/6
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
