The answer you are looking for is 2/3.

When adding or subtracting fractions, they must have the same denominator. To make 1/6 and 1/2 have the same denominator, you must multiply 1/2 by 3/3 straight across. This gives you 3/6 which you can now add 1/6 to to get 4/6. 4/6 can be simplified down to 2/3 by dividing by 2/2. Thus making 2/3 the answer.

I hope this helps!
