The service pack install will install to whatever instances you tell it to. It will identify the various instances at the beginning of the install and ask you which ones to install on. It will upgrade the "common tools" if you install the SP on any instance, regardless of whther you install the SP on some or all of the other instances.
The 1399.06 part of your version tells you what SP you have, using the list thaqt khtan mentioned. Trust only that number since there have been know to be multiple releases of the same SP, with no difference besides the bugs fixed and the build number.
