Learn how to find what is 13/6 plus 10/7 in fraction form just in a few minutes. We have covered the easiest method to write 13/6 + 10/7 as a fraction and decimal.
Summary: 13/6 plus 10/7 = 151/42
Since both fractions have unequal denominators, 13/6 plus 10/7 is an unlike fractions addition. For adding unlike fractions, you have to first find the equivalent fractions for fraction 13/6 and fraction 10/7 in order to have the same denominators for both fractions. Therefore, you have to find the LCM of denominators 6 and 7. 42 is the LCM of 6 and 7. Multiplying the LCM 42 with the numerators and denominators of both fractions (13/6 x 42/42) + (10/7 x 42/42), and simplify further in order to have the common denominator. So the equivalent fraction for 13/6 is 91/42 and for 10/7 is 60/42. By simplifying this fraction addition 91/42 + 60/42, it becomes 151/42.
The below workout with step by step calculation shows how to find the equivalent fraction between 13/6 and 10/7 by adding two fractions with different, unequal or unlike denominators. The sum in fraction form for 13/6 plus 10/7 can be obtained by using anyone of the two methods below.
1. LCM method
2. Cross multiplication method.
(13/6) + (10/7) using LCM Method:
What is 13/6 plus 10/7 as a fraction?
step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 13/6
Fraction B: 10/7
What to be found?
(13/6) + (10/7) = ?
Find what's the sum of 13/6 and 10/7.
step 2 Compare the denominators of fractions 13/6 and 10/7 to identify whether it is a like or unlike fraction addition. Since the denominators of given fractions 13/6 and 10/7 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 13/6 and 10/7:
The LCM of 6 and 7 is 42.
step 4 Write the fractions 13/6 and 10/7 in the addition expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
= 13/6 + 10/7
= [(13 x 42)/(6 x 42)] + [(10 x 42)/(7 x 42)]
step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
= 91/42 + 60/42
step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
= 1/42 x (91/1 + 60/1)
= 1/42 x (91 + 60)
step 7Simplify the above expression further:
= 1/42 x 151
= 151/42
13/6 + 10/7 = 151/42
Hence,
13/6 plus 10/7 as a fraction is 151/42.
13/6 + 10/7 using Cross Multiplication Method:
step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 13/6
Fraction B: 10/7
What to be found?
(13/6)+(10/7) = ?
Find what's the sum of 13/6 and 10/7.
step 2 Find the product of numerator of Fraction A and denominator of Fraction B (13 x 7), find the product of numerator of Fraction B and denominator of Fraction A (10 x 6), and find the product of both denominators of Fraction A and Fraction B (6 x 7) and rewrite the equation as like the below:
= (13 x 7) + (10 x 6)/(6 x 7)
step 3 Simplify and rewrite the fraction:
= (91 + 60)/42
13/6 + 10/7 = 151/42
Hence,
13/6 plus 10/7 in fraction is 151/42
