By simplifying the fraction addition expression becomes 166/11.
The below workout with step by step calculation shows how to find the equivalent fraction between 1/11 and 15 by adding fraction to a whole number . The sum in fraction form for 1/11 plus 15/1 can be obtained by using anyone of the two methods below.
1. LCM method
2. Cross multiplication method.
1/11+15 using LCM Method:
What is 1/11 plus 15 as a fraction?
step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 1/11
Fraction B: 15/1
What to be found?
1/11+15 = ?
Find what's the sum of 1/11 and 15.
step 2 Compare the denominators of fractions 1/11 and 15 to identify whether it is a like or unlike fraction addition. Since the denominators of given fractions 1/11 and 15 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 1/11 and 15:
The LCM of 11 and 1 is 11.
step 4 Write the fractions 1/11 and 15 in the addition expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
=1/11+15
=(1 x 11)/(11 x 11)+(15 x 11)/(1 x 11)
step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
=1/11+165/11
step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
=1/11 x (1/1+165/1)
=1/11 x (1 + 165)
step 7Simplify the above expression further:
=1/11 x 166
=166/11
1/11+15=166/11
Hence,
1/11 plus 15 equals to 166/11 in fraction.
1/11+15 using Cross Multiplication Method:
step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 1/11
Fraction B: 15/1
What to be found?
1/11+15 = ?
Find what's the sum of 1/11 and 15.
step 2 Find the product of numerator of Fraction A and denominator of Fraction B (1 x 1), find the product of numerator of Fraction B and denominator of Fraction A (15 x 11), and find the product of both denominators of Fraction A and Fraction B (11 x 1) and rewrite the equation as like the below:
= (1 x 1) + (15 x 11)/(11 x 1)
step 3 Simplify and rewrite the fraction:
= (1 + 165)/11
1/11+15 = 166/11
Hence,
1/11 plus 15 = 166/11
