Learn how to find what is 1/1 plus 2/62 in fraction form just in a few minutes. We have covered the easiest method to write 1/1 + 2/62 as a fraction and decimal.
Summary: 1/1 plus 2/62 = 32/31
Since both fractions have unequal denominators, 1/1 plus 2/62 is an unlike fractions addition. For adding unlike fractions, you have to first find the equivalent fractions for fraction 1/1 and fraction 2/62 in order to have the same denominators for both fractions. Therefore, you have to find the LCM of denominators 1 and 62. 62 is the LCM of 1 and 62. Multiplying the LCM 62 with the numerators and denominators of both fractions (1/1 x 62/62) + (2/62 x 62/62), and simplify further in order to have the common denominator. So the equivalent fraction for 1/1 is 62/62 and for 2/62 is 2/62. By simplifying this fraction addition 62/62 + 2/62, it becomes 64/62.
The below workout with step by step calculation shows how to find the equivalent fraction between 1/1 and 2/62 by adding two fractions with different, unequal or unlike denominators. The sum in fraction form for 1/1 plus 2/62 can be obtained by using anyone of the two methods below.
1. LCM method
2. Cross multiplication method.
(1/1) + (2/62) using LCM Method:
What is 1/1 plus 2/62 as a fraction?
step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 1/1
Fraction B: 2/62
What to be found?
(1/1) + (2/62) = ?
Find what's the sum of 1/1 and 2/62.
step 2 Compare the denominators of fractions 1/1 and 2/62 to identify whether it is a like or unlike fraction addition. Since the denominators of given fractions 1/1 and 2/62 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 2/62:
The LCM of 1 and 62 is 62.
step 4 Write the fractions 1/1 and 2/62 in the addition expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
= 1/1 + 2/62
= [(1 x 62)/(1 x 62)] + [(2 x 62)/(62 x 62)]
step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
= 62/62 + 2/62
step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
= 1/62 x (62/1 + 2/1)
= 1/62 x (62 + 2)
step 7Simplify the above expression further:
= 1/62 x 64
= 64/62
= 32/31
1/1 + 2/62 = 32/31
Hence,
1/1 plus 2/62 as a fraction is 32/31.
1/1 + 2/62 using Cross Multiplication Method:
step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 1/1
Fraction B: 2/62
What to be found?
(1/1)+(2/62) = ?
Find what's the sum of 1/1 and 2/62.
step 2 Find the product of numerator of Fraction A and denominator of Fraction B (1 x 62), 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 62) and rewrite the equation as like the below:
= (1 x 62) + (2 x 1)/(1 x 62)
step 3 Simplify and rewrite the fraction:
= (62 + 2)/62
= 64/62
= 32/31
1/1 + 2/62 = 32/31
Hence,
1/1 plus 2/62 in fraction is 32/31
