$\frac{17}{20}$ $17/20$

Find the LCD:

LCD: $20$ $20$ and thus we must transform each fraction such that the denominator is $20$ $20$

$\frac{2}{2} \cdot \frac{6}{10} = \frac{12}{20}$ $2/2*6/10 = 12/20$

$\frac{5}{5} \cdot \frac{1}{4} = \frac{5}{20}$ $5/5*1/4 = 5/20$

Now we add

$\frac{12}{20} + \frac{5}{20} = \frac{17}{20}$ $12/20+5/20 = 17/20$
