Learn how to find what is 1/1 plus 2/46 in fraction form just in a few minutes. We have covered the easiest method to write 1/1 + 2/46 as a fraction and decimal.
Summary: 1/1 plus 2/46 = 24/23
Since both fractions have unequal denominators, 1/1 plus 2/46 is an unlike fractions addition. For adding unlike fractions, you have to first find the equivalent fractions for fraction 1/1 and fraction 2/46 in order to have the same denominators for both fractions. Therefore, you have to find the LCM of denominators 1 and 46. 46 is the LCM of 1 and 46. Multiplying the LCM 46 with the numerators and denominators of both fractions (1/1 x 46/46) + (2/46 x 46/46), and simplify further in order to have the common denominator. So the equivalent fraction for 1/1 is 46/46 and for 2/46 is 2/46. By simplifying this fraction addition 46/46 + 2/46, it becomes 48/46.
The below workout with step by step calculation shows how to find the equivalent fraction between 1/1 and 2/46 by adding two fractions with different, unequal or unlike denominators. The sum in fraction form for 1/1 plus 2/46 can be obtained by using anyone of the two methods below.
1. LCM method
2. Cross multiplication method.
(1/1) + (2/46) using LCM Method:
What is 1/1 plus 2/46 as a fraction?
step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 1/1
Fraction B: 2/46
What to be found?
(1/1) + (2/46) = ?
Find what's the sum of 1/1 and 2/46.
step 2 Compare the denominators of fractions 1/1 and 2/46 to identify whether it is a like or unlike fraction addition. Since the denominators of given fractions 1/1 and 2/46 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 2/46:
The LCM of 1 and 46 is 46.
step 4 Write the fractions 1/1 and 2/46 in the addition expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
= 1/1 + 2/46
= [(1 x 46)/(1 x 46)] + [(2 x 46)/(46 x 46)]
step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
= 46/46 + 2/46
step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
= 1/46 x (46/1 + 2/1)
= 1/46 x (46 + 2)
step 7Simplify the above expression further:
= 1/46 x 48
= 48/46
= 24/23
1/1 + 2/46 = 24/23
Hence,
1/1 plus 2/46 as a fraction is 24/23.
1/1 + 2/46 using Cross Multiplication Method:
step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 1/1
Fraction B: 2/46
What to be found?
(1/1)+(2/46) = ?
Find what's the sum of 1/1 and 2/46.
step 2 Find the product of numerator of Fraction A and denominator of Fraction B (1 x 46), find the product of numerator of Fraction B and denominator of Fraction A (2 x 1), and find the product of both denominators of Fraction A and Fraction B (1 x 46) and rewrite the equation as like the below:
= (1 x 46) + (2 x 1)/(1 x 46)
step 3 Simplify and rewrite the fraction:
= (46 + 2)/46
= 48/46
= 24/23
1/1 + 2/46 = 24/23
Hence,
1/1 plus 2/46 in fraction is 24/23
