The LCM of 7 and 19 is 133.

step 4 Write the fractions 6/7 and 5/19 in the addition expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
= 6/7 + 5/19
= [(6 x 133)/(7 x 133)] + [(5 x 133)/(19 x 133)]

step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
= 114/133 + 35/133

step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
= 1/133 x (114/1 + 35/1)
= 1/133 x (114 + 35)

step 7Simplify the above expression further:
= 1/133 x 149
= 149/133
6/7 + 5/19 = 149/133
