Answer:

5/8

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to reduce the fractions then you choose a common denominator to calculate:6/12=1/2 then you see the you see 1/4 can be a common denominator so you equal 1/2 to the denominator by 4, which means multiplying 2 by both the numerator and denominator, we get 2/4 after that you add and subtract in parentheses and you will get 1/4 then you multiply by 5 to get 5/4 the finally you have to plus 0,5 you will get 7/4 done.
