    1 41/56 or 97/56

    Step-by-step explanation:

    To add fractions, you must first find a common denominator. The easiest way to do this is to multiply the two denominators, 7 and 8. The product of these two numbers is 56, your new denominator. Then, you cross-multiply the numerators.

    6/7 + 7/8

    7*8 = 56 (denominator)

    You multiplied 7 by 8, therefore you must also multiply the 6 by 8 to keep the fractions proportional. Use the same method to multiply 7 by 7.

    48/56 + 49/56

    Now that the denominators are the same, you can add the numerators.

    97/56

    If necessary, you can turn this improper fraction into a mixed number by dividing 97 by 56. The result is written before the fraction, and the remainder is written over 56.

    1 41/56
