To solve this, set the denominators equal to one another so that we can just add the numerators.
two fourths becomes 6/12 and two sixths becomes 4/12
When you add fractions with the same denominator, just add the numerator. The denominator stays the same
This will leave you with 10/12, which can be simplified to equal 5/6
