Answer
37/35


Steps Explained:

We want to add the following 2 fractions:

Denominator 1 ≠ Denominator 2.We need matching denominators

Multiply fraction 1 numerator * fraction 2 denominator.
Multiply fraction 2 numerator by the fraction 1 denominator

We add those 2 results, and get our numerator.
Our denominator is the product of the denominators of both fractions.

Fraction 1 + Fraction 2  =  Numerator 1 x Denominator 2 + Numerator 2 x Denominator 1
  Denominator 1 x Denominator 2

Fraction 1 + Fraction 2  =  1 x 7 + 6 x 5
  5 x 7

Fraction 1 + Fraction 2  =  7 + 30
  35

Fraction 1 + Fraction 2  =  37
  35

Answer  =  37
