  1. Convert to Improper Fractions: Step 11: Convert mixed numbers to improper fractions for easier addition.\newline101112=(12×10+11)/12=1311210 \frac{11}{12} = (12\times10 + 11)/12 = \frac{131}{12}\newline5512=(12×5+5)/12=65125 \frac{5}{12} = (12\times5 + 5)/12 = \frac{65}{12}
  2. Add Improper Fractions: Step 22: Add the two improper fractions. 13112+6512=131+6512=19612\frac{131}{12} + \frac{65}{12} = \frac{131 + 65}{12} = \frac{196}{12}
