Learn how to find what is 11/4 plus 11 in fraction form just in a few minutes. We have covered the easiest method to write 11/4 + 11 as a fraction and decimal.
Summary: 11/4 plus 11 = 55/4
Since both fractions have unequal denominators, 11/4 plus 11 is an unlike fractions addition. For adding unlike fractions, you have to first find the equivalent fractions for fraction 11/4 and fraction 11 in order to have the same denominators for both fractions. Therefore, you have to find the LCM of denominators 4 and 1. 4 is the LCM of 4 and 1. Multiplying the LCM 4 with the numerators and denominators of both fractions (11/4 x 4/4) + (11 x 4/4), and simplify further in order to have the common denominator. So the equivalent fraction for 11/4 is 11/4 and for 11 is 44/4. By simplifying this fraction addition 11/4 + 44/4, it becomes 55/4.
The below workout with step by step calculation shows how to find the equivalent fraction between 11/4 and 11 by adding fraction to a whole number . The sum in fraction form for 11/4 plus 11/1 can be obtained by using anyone of the two methods below.
1. LCM method
2. Cross multiplication method.
(11/4) + (11) using LCM Method:
What is 11/4 plus 11 as a fraction?
step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 11/4
Fraction B: 11/1
What to be found?
(11/4) + (11) = ?
Find what's the sum of 11/4 and 11.
step 2 Compare the denominators of fractions 11/4 and 11 to identify whether it is a like or unlike fraction addition. Since the denominators of given fractions 11/4 and 11 are not equal, it is said to be unlike fractions addition.
step 3For unlike fractions addition, find the LCM (least common multiple) of both denominators of fractions 11/4 and 11:
The LCM of 4 and 1 is 4.
step 4 Write the fractions 11/4 and 11 in the addition expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
= 11/4 + 11
= [(11 x 4)/(4 x 4)] + [(11 x 4)/(1 x 4)]
step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
= 11/4 + 44/4
step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
= 1/4 x (11/1 + 44/1)
= 1/4 x (11 + 44)
step 7Simplify the above expression further:
= 1/4 x 55
= 55/4
11/4 + 11 = 55/4
Hence,
11/4 plus 11 as a fraction is 55/4.
11/4 + 11 using Cross Multiplication Method:
step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 11/4
Fraction B: 11/1
What to be found?
(11/4)+(11) = ?
Find what's the sum of 11/4 and 11.
step 2 Find the product of numerator of Fraction A and denominator of Fraction B (11 x 1), find the product of numerator of Fraction B and denominator of Fraction A (11 x 4), and find the product of both denominators of Fraction A and Fraction B (4 x 1) and rewrite the equation as like the below:
= (11 x 1) + (11 x 4)/(4 x 1)
step 3 Simplify and rewrite the fraction:
= (11 + 44)/4
11/4 + 11 = 55/4
Hence,
11/4 plus 11 in fraction is 55/4
