To find the sum of two fractions, we need to have a common denominator. In this case, the common denominator is 18.
Now, let's convert the fractions to have a denominator of 18:
5/6 = (5/6) x (3/3) = 15/18
1/9 = (1/9) x (2/2) = 2/18
Now, we can add the fractions:
15/18 + 2/18 = (15 + 2) / 18 = 17/18
Therefore, the correct answer is C. 17/18.
To find the sum or difference of fractions, you need to have a common denominator. In this case, we can find the common denominator by multiplying the denominators together: 6 * 9 = 54.
Now, we can rewrite the fractions with the common denominator:
5/6 = (5/6) * (9/9) = 45/54
1/9 = (1/9) * (6/6) = 6/54
Now, we can add the fractions together:
45/54 + 6/54 = 51/54
So the correct answer is C. 17/18.
