By simplifying the fraction addition expression becomes 37/57.
The below workout with step by step calculation shows how to find the equivalent fraction between 1/3 and 6/19 by adding two fractions with different, unequal or unlike denominators. The sum in fraction form for 1/3 plus 6/19 can be obtained by using anyone of the two methods below.
1. LCM method
2. Cross multiplication method.
1/3+6/19 using LCM Method:
What is 1/3 plus 6/19 as a fraction?
step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 1/3
Fraction B: 6/19
What to be found?
1/3+6/19 = ?
Find what's the sum of 1/3 and 6/19.
step 2 Compare the denominators of fractions 1/3 and 6/19 to identify whether it is a like or unlike fraction addition. Since the denominators of given fractions 1/3 and 6/19 are not equal, it is said to be unlike fractions addition.

The LCM of 3 and 19 is 57.
step 4 Write the fractions 1/3 and 6/19 in the addition expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
=1/3+6/19
=(1 x 57)/(3 x 57)+(6 x 57)/(19 x 57)
step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
=19/57+18/57
step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
=1/57 x (19/1+18/1)
=1/57 x (19 + 18)
step 7Simplify the above expression further:
=1/57 x 37
=37/57
1/3+6/19=37/57
Hence,
1/3 plus 6/19 equals to 37/57 in fraction.
