(16/7) + (2/11) using LCM Method:
What is 16/7 plus 2/11 as a fraction?

step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 16/7
Fraction B: 2/11

What to be found?
(16/7) + (2/11) = ?
Find what's the sum of 16/7 and 2/11.

step 2 Compare the denominators of fractions 16/7 and 2/11 to identify whether it is a like or unlike fraction addition. Since the denominators of given fractions 16/7 and 2/11 are not equal, it is said to be unlike fractions addition.

The LCM of 7 and 11 is 77.

step 4 Write the fractions 16/7 and 2/11 in the addition expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
= 16/7 + 2/11
= [(16 x 77)/(7 x 77)] + [(2 x 77)/(11 x 77)]

step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
= 176/77 + 14/77

step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
= 1/77 x (176/1 + 14/1)
= 1/77 x (176 + 14)

step 7Simplify the above expression further:
= 1/77 x 190
= 190/77
16/7 + 2/11 = 190/77

Hence,
