Answer 1

Answer: 7 1/12

B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Rewriting our equation with parts separated

=1+1/4+5+5/6

Solving the whole number parts

1+5=6

Solving the fraction parts

1/4+5/6=?

Find the LCD of 1/4 and 5/6 and rewrite to solve with the equivalent fractions.

LCD = 12 3/12+10/12= 13/12

Simplifying the fraction part, 13/12,

13/12=1 1/12

Combining the whole and fraction parts

6+1+1/12 = 7 1/12
