First find a common denominator

5/6
1/2 = 3/6
2/3 = 4/6

Then add all of them together.
5/6 + 3/6 + 4/6  = 12/6

12/6 = 2

2 pounds is your answer

hope this helps
apologiabiology

total pounds

to add, find a common deonmenator (bottom numbers)

the denomenantors are 6,3,2

the common denominator is 6 because 6*1=6, 3*2=6, 2*3=6


multiply each by 1 or a/a where a=a to make the common denomenators so we can add

remember that [tex]\frac{a}{b}+\frac{c}{b}=\frac{a+c}{b}[/tex]

5/6 times 1/1=5/6

2/3 times 2/2=4/6

1/2 times 3/3=3/6

so

[tex]\frac{5}{6}+\frac{2}{3}+\frac{1}{2}=[/tex]

[tex]\frac{5}[6}+\frac{4}[6}+\frac{3}{6}=[/tex]

[tex]\frac{5+4+3}{6}=[/tex]

[tex]\frac{12}{6}=[/tex]

[tex]2[/tex]

2 pounds total of special mix
