What is 1 1/6 plus 2 3/8 (by the way show work)

Answer:
\frac{170}{48}
Step-by-step explanation:
1[tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{7}{6}[/tex]
2[tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{19}{8}[/tex]
in order to add these fractions, we need the denominators to be same. We can multiply 6 and 8 to get 48.
In doing this, we need to multiply the numerators by the respective numbers also.
So, 7 (8) = 56 and 19 (6) = 114.
Add:
[tex]\frac{56}{48}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{114}{48}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{170}{48}[/tex]
