$$\frac { 1 } { 3 } + \frac { 1 } { 6 }$$

$\frac{1}{2}=0.5$

Least common multiple of $3$ and $6$ is $6$. Convert $\frac{1}{3}$ and $\frac{1}{6}$ to fractions with denominator $6$.

$$\frac{2}{6}+\frac{1}{6}$$

Since $\frac{2}{6}$ and $\frac{1}{6}$ have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{2+1}{6}$$

Add $2$ and $1$ to get $3$.

$$\frac{3}{6}$$

Reduce the fraction $\frac{3}{6}$ to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out $3$.

$$\frac{1}{2}$$

$\frac{1}{2} = 0.5$
