1/1 + 1/61 as a fraction

Learn how to find what is 1/1 plus 1/61 in fraction form just in a few minutes. We have covered the easiest method to write 1/1 + 1/61 as a fraction and decimal.

Summary: 1/1 plus 1/61 = 62/61
Since both fractions have unequal denominators, 1/1 plus 1/61 is an unlike fractions addition. For adding unlike fractions, you have to first find the equivalent fractions for fraction 1/1 and fraction 1/61 in order to have the same denominators for both fractions. Therefore, you have to find the LCM of denominators 1 and 61. 61 is the LCM of 1 and 61. Multiplying the LCM 61 with the numerators and denominators of both fractions (1/1 x 61/61) + (1/61 x 61/61), and simplify further in order to have the common denominator. So the equivalent fraction for 1/1 is 61/61 and for 1/61 is 1/61. By simplifying this fraction addition 61/61 + 1/61, it becomes 62/61.

CALCULATION: 1/1 + 1/61 as a fraction

The below workout with step by step calculation shows how to find the equivalent fraction between 1/1 and 1/61 by adding two fractions with different, unequal or unlike denominators. The sum in fraction form for 1/1 plus 1/61 can be obtained by using anyone of the two methods below.
1. LCM method
2. Cross multiplication method.

(1/1) + (1/61) using LCM Method:
What is 1/1 plus 1/61 as a fraction?

step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 1/1
Fraction B: 1/61

What to be found?
(1/1) + (1/61) = ?
Find what's the sum of 1/1 and 1/61.

step 2 Compare the denominators of fractions 1/1 and 1/61 to identify whether it is a like or unlike fraction addition. Since the denominators of given fractions 1/1 and 1/61 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 1/1 and 1/61:
The LCM of 1 and 61 is 61.

step 4 Write the fractions 1/1 and 1/61 in the addition expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
= 1/1 + 1/61
= [(1 x 61)/(1 x 61)] + [(1 x 61)/(61 x 61)]

step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
= 61/61 + 1/61

step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
= 1/61 x (61/1 + 1/1)
= 1/61 x (61 + 1)

step 7Simplify the above expression further:
= 1/61 x 62
= 62/61
1/1 + 1/61 = 62/61

Hence,
1/1 plus 1/61 as a fraction is 62/61.

1/1 + 1/61 using Cross Multiplication Method:
step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 1/1
Fraction B: 1/61

What to be found?
(1/1)+(1/61) = ?
Find what's the sum of 1/1 and 1/61.

step 2 Find the product of numerator of Fraction A and denominator of Fraction B (1 x 61), find the product of numerator of Fraction B and denominator of Fraction A (1 x 1), and find the product of both denominators of Fraction A and Fraction B (1 x 61) and rewrite the equation as like the below:
= (1 x 61) + (1 x 1)/(1 x 61)

step 3 Simplify and rewrite the fraction:
= (61 + 1)/61
1/1 + 1/61 = 62/61

Hence,
1/1 plus 1/61 in fraction is 62/61
