You asked:

Evaluate the expression: \(\frac{5}{6} + \frac{2}{3}\)

MathBot Answer:

\[ \frac{5}{6} + \frac{2}{3} = \frac{3}{2} = 1.5 \]

The sum can be computed by rewriting each term over a common denominator, where the least common denominator of \(\frac{5}{6}\) and \(\frac{2}{3}\) is \(6\). \[ \begin{aligned} \frac{5}{6} + \frac{2}{3} &= \frac{5 \cdot 1}{6 \cdot 1} + \frac{2 \cdot 2}{3 \cdot 2} \\ &= \frac{5 + 4}{6} \\ &= \frac{9}{6} \\&= \frac{3}{2} \end{aligned} \]
