step 4 Write the fractions 6/7 and 11/14 in the addition expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
= 6/7 + 11/14
= [(6 x 14)/(7 x 14)] + [(11 x 14)/(14 x 14)]

step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
= 12/14 + 11/14

step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
= 1/14 x (12/1 + 11/1)
= 1/14 x (12 + 11)

step 7Simplify the above expression further:
= 1/14 x 23
= 23/14
6/7 + 11/14 = 23/14
