Answer:

The answer should be 5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem just adds both the numerator and the denominator which is something you can't do. You have to find the least common denominator, which in this case is 6, and change the numerator as the denominators have been changed. So 1/3 becomes 2/6. 3/6 + 2/6 = 5/6
