11/6 + 1/20 as a fraction

Learn how to find what is 11/6 plus 1/20 in fraction form just in a few minutes. We have covered the easiest method to write 11/6 + 1/20 as a fraction and decimal.

Summary: 11/6 plus 1/20 = 113/60
Since both fractions have unequal denominators, 11/6 plus 1/20 is an unlike fractions addition. For adding unlike fractions, you have to first find the equivalent fractions for fraction 11/6 and fraction 1/20 in order to have the same denominators for both fractions. Therefore, you have to find the LCM of denominators 6 and 20. 60 is the LCM of 6 and 20. Multiplying the LCM 60 with the numerators and denominators of both fractions (11/6 x 60/60) + (1/20 x 60/60), and simplify further in order to have the common denominator. So the equivalent fraction for 11/6 is 110/60 and for 1/20 is 3/60. By simplifying this fraction addition 110/60 + 3/60, it becomes 113/60.

The below workout with step by step calculation shows how to find the equivalent fraction between 11/6 and 1/20 by adding two fractions with different, unequal or unlike denominators. The sum in fraction form for 11/6 plus 1/20 can be obtained by using anyone of the two methods below.
1. LCM method
2. Cross multiplication method.

(11/6) + (1/20) using LCM Method:
What is 11/6 plus 1/20 as a fraction?

step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 11/6
Fraction B: 1/20

What to be found?
(11/6) + (1/20) = ?
Find what's the sum of 11/6 and 1/20.

step 2 Compare the denominators of fractions 11/6 and 1/20 to identify whether it is a like or unlike fraction addition. Since the denominators of given fractions 11/6 and 1/20 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 11/6 and 1/20:
The LCM of 6 and 20 is 60.

step 4 Write the fractions 11/6 and 1/20 in the addition expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
= 11/6 + 1/20
= [(11 x 60)/(6 x 60)] + [(1 x 60)/(20 x 60)]

step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
= 110/60 + 3/60

step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
= 1/60 x (110/1 + 3/1)
= 1/60 x (110 + 3)

step 7Simplify the above expression further:
= 1/60 x 113
= 113/60
11/6 + 1/20 = 113/60

Hence,
11/6 plus 1/20 as a fraction is 113/60.
