By simplifying the fraction addition expression becomes 32/247.
The below workout with step by step calculation shows how to find the equivalent fraction between 1/13 and 1/19 by adding two fractions with different, unequal or unlike denominators. The sum in fraction form for 1/13 plus 1/19 can be obtained by using anyone of the two methods below.
1. LCM method
2. Cross multiplication method.
1/13+1/19 using LCM Method:
What is 1/13 plus 1/19 as a fraction?
step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 1/13
Fraction B: 1/19
What to be found?
1/13+1/19 = ?
Find what's the sum of 1/13 and 1/19.
step 2 Compare the denominators of fractions 1/13 and 1/19 to identify whether it is a like or unlike fraction addition. Since the denominators of given fractions 1/13 and 1/19 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 1/13 and 1/19:
The LCM of 13 and 19 is 247.
step 4 Write the fractions 1/13 and 1/19 in the addition expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
=1/13+1/19
=(1 x 247)/(13 x 247)+(1 x 247)/(19 x 247)
step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
=19/247+13/247
step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
=1/247 x (19/1+13/1)
=1/247 x (19 + 13)
step 7Simplify the above expression further:
=1/247 x 32
=32/247
1/13+1/19=32/247
Hence,
1/13 plus 1/19 equals to 32/247 in fraction.
1/13+1/19 using Cross Multiplication Method:
step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 1/13
Fraction B: 1/19
What to be found?
1/13+1/19 = ?
Find what's the sum of 1/13 and 1/19.
step 2 Find the product of numerator of Fraction A and denominator of Fraction B (1 x 19), find the product of numerator of Fraction B and denominator of Fraction A (1 x 13), and find the product of both denominators of Fraction A and Fraction B (13 x 19) and rewrite the equation as like the below:
= (1 x 19) + (1 x 13)/(13 x 19)
step 3 Simplify and rewrite the fraction:
= (19 + 13)/247
1/13+1/19 = 32/247
Hence,
1/13 plus 1/19 = 32/247
