The closest option to the actual answer is a.

1 5/18 is the actual answer.

If you make both the denominators the same, then you can actually add the fractions together.

To make both of the denominators the same, you need to multiply 5/6 by 9 and 4/9 by 6, which would result in 45/54 + 24/54= 69/54 = 23/18. If we convert it to a mixed fraction, it would result into 1 5/18.
