2. Cross multiplication method.

(11/6) + (11/7) using LCM Method:
What is 11/6 plus 11/7 as a fraction?

step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 11/6
Fraction B: 11/7

What to be found?
(11/6) + (11/7) = ?
Find what's the sum of 11/6 and 11/7.

step 2 Compare the denominators of fractions 11/6 and 11/7 to identify whether it is a like or unlike fraction addition. Since the denominators of given fractions 11/6 and 11/7 are not equal, it is said to be unlike fractions addition.

step 3For unlike fractions addition, find the LCM (least common multiple) of both denominators of fractions 11/6 and 11/7:
The LCM of 6 and 7 is 42.

step 4 Write the fractions 11/6 and 11/7 in the addition expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
= 11/6 + 11/7
= [(11 x 42)/(6 x 42)] + [(11 x 42)/(7 x 42)]

step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
= 77/42 + 66/42

step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
= 1/42 x (77/1 + 66/1)
= 1/42 x (77 + 66)

step 7Simplify the above expression further:
= 1/42 x 143
= 143/42
11/6 + 11/7 = 143/42

Hence,
11/6 plus 11/7 as a fraction is 143/42.
