Multiplying the LCM 198 with the numerators and denominators of both fractions (17/18 x 198/198) + (10/11 x 198/198), and simplify further in order to have the common denominator. So the equivalent fraction for 17/18 is 187/198 and for 10/11 is 180/198. By simplifying this fraction addition 187/198 + 180/198, it becomes 367/198.
The below workout with step by step calculation shows how to find the equivalent fraction between 17/18 and 10/11 by adding two fractions with different, unequal or unlike denominators. The sum in fraction form for 17/18 plus 10/11 can be obtained by using anyone of the two methods below.
1. LCM method
2. Cross multiplication method.
(17/18) + (10/11) using LCM Method:
What is 17/18 plus 10/11 as a fraction?
step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 17/18
Fraction B: 10/11
What to be found?
(17/18) + (10/11) = ?
Find what's the sum of 17/18 and 10/11.
step 2 Compare the denominators of fractions 17/18 and 10/11 to identify whether it is a like or unlike fraction addition. Since the denominators of given fractions 17/18 and 10/11 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 17/18 and 10/11:
The LCM of 18 and 11 is 198.
step 4 Write the fractions 17/18 and 10/11 in the addition expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
= 17/18 + 10/11
= [(17 x 198)/(18 x 198)] + [(10 x 198)/(11 x 198)]
step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
= 187/198 + 180/198
step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
= 1/198 x (187/1 + 180/1)
= 1/198 x (187 + 180)
step 7Simplify the above expression further:
= 1/198 x 367
= 367/198
17/18 + 10/11 = 367/198
Hence,
17/18 plus 10/11 as a fraction is 367/198.
17/18 + 10/11 using Cross Multiplication Method:
step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
