### Instruction: What is $\frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{3}$?### Response: To add fractions, I need a common denominator.
The least common multiple of 2 and 3 is 6, so I will multiply both fractions by a factor that gives them a denominator of 6.
For the first fraction, $\frac{1}{2}$, I need to multiply the numerator and denominator by 3 to get $\frac{3}{6}$.
For the second fraction, $\frac{1}{3}$, I need to multiply the numerator and denominator by 2 to get $\frac{2}{6}$.
Now I have $\frac{3}{6} + \frac{2}{6}$, which I can add by adding the numerators and keeping the denominator.
The numerators add up to 5, so the final answer is $\frac{5}{6}$.
