$\frac{5}{6}$ $5/6$

Explanation:

$before we can add the fractions we require them to have$ $"before we can add the fractions we require them to have"$
$a common denominator$ $"a "color(blue)"common denominator"$

$the lowest common multiple (LCM) of 6 and 3 is 6$ $"the lowest common multiple (LCM) of 6 and 3 is 6"$

$\Rightarrow \frac{2}{3} = \frac{2}{3} \times \frac{2}{2} = \frac{4}{6}$ $rArr2/3=2/3xx2/2=4/6$

$\Rightarrow \frac{2}{3} + \frac{1}{6} = \frac{4}{6} + \frac{1}{6} = \frac{5}{6}$ $rArr2/3+1/6=4/6+1/6=5/6$
