I times the denominator by the each other and then timed the numerator by the same number as I timesed the denominators by. I would've reduced after that except I couldn't reduce.

$$\frac{ 1 }{ 7 }+\frac{ 5 }{ 6 }$$
First thing to do is to find the LCM of 7 and 6 so that you can have a common denominator
LCM= 42
$$\frac{  }{ 42}$$
To get the numerator, divide 42 by each respective denominator and multiply by its respective numerator.
$$\frac{ 6+35 }{ 42 }$$
