1/3 + 2/70 as a fraction

Learn how to find what is 1/3 plus 2/70 in fraction form just in a few minutes. We have covered the easiest method to write 1/3 + 2/70 as a fraction and decimal.

Summary: 1/3 plus 2/70 = 38/105
Since both fractions have unequal denominators, 1/3 plus 2/70 is an unlike fractions addition. For adding unlike fractions, you have to first find the equivalent fractions for fraction 1/3 and fraction 2/70 in order to have the same denominators for both fractions. Therefore, you have to find the LCM of denominators 3 and 70. 210 is the LCM of 3 and 70. Multiplying the LCM 210 with the numerators and denominators of both fractions (1/3 x 210/210) + (2/70 x 210/210), and simplify further in order to have the common denominator. So the equivalent fraction for 1/3 is 70/210 and for 2/70 is 6/210. By simplifying this fraction addition 70/210 + 6/210, it becomes 76/210.

1. LCM method
2. Cross multiplication method.

(1/3) + (2/70) using LCM Method:
What is 1/3 plus 2/70 as a fraction?

step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 1/3
Fraction B: 2/70

What to be found?
(1/3) + (2/70) = ?
Find what's the sum of 1/3 and 2/70.

step 2 Compare the denominators of fractions 1/3 and 2/70 to identify whether it is a like or unlike fraction addition. Since the denominators of given fractions 1/3 and 2/70 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 1/3 and 2/70:
The LCM of 3 and 70 is 210.

step 4 Write the fractions 1/3 and 2/70 in the addition expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
= 1/3 + 2/70
= [(1 x 210)/(3 x 210)] + [(2 x 210)/(70 x 210)]

step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
= 70/210 + 6/210

step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
= 1/210 x (70/1 + 6/1)
= 1/210 x (70 + 6)

step 7Simplify the above expression further:
= 1/210 x 76
= 76/210
= 38/105
1/3 + 2/70 = 38/105

Hence,
1/3 plus 2/70 as a fraction is 38/105.
