Q. Sidney is trying to fit two boxes into the trunk of her car. One box is 16\frac{1}{6} of a foot tall and the other is 712\frac{7}{12} of a foot tall. Stacked on top of each other, what is the combined height of the two boxes?\newlineWrite your answer as a fraction or as a whole or mixed number.\newline_____ feet
  1. Calculate first box height: Calculate the height of the first box. 16\frac{1}{6} foot tall.
  2. Calculate second box height: Calculate the height of the second box. 712\frac{7}{12} foot tall.
  3. Find total height when stacked: Add the heights of the two boxes to find the total height when stacked.\newline(1/6)+(7/12)=(2/12)+(7/12)=9/12=3/4(1/6) + (7/12) = (2/12) + (7/12) = 9/12 = 3/4 foot.
