1. LCM method
2. Cross multiplication method.

(1/5) + (2/92) using LCM Method:
What is 1/5 plus 2/92 as a fraction?

step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 1/5
Fraction B: 2/92

What to be found?
(1/5) + (2/92) = ?
Find what's the sum of 1/5 and 2/92.

step 2 Compare the denominators of fractions 1/5 and 2/92 to identify whether it is a like or unlike fraction addition. Since the denominators of given fractions 1/5 and 2/92 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 1/5 and 2/92:
The LCM of 5 and 92 is 460.

step 4 Write the fractions 1/5 and 2/92 in the addition expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
= 1/5 + 2/92
= [(1 x 460)/(5 x 460)] + [(2 x 460)/(92 x 460)]

step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
= 92/460 + 10/460

step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
= 1/460 x (92/1 + 10/1)
= 1/460 x (92 + 10)

step 7Simplify the above expression further:
= 1/460 x 102
= 102/460
= 51/230
1/5 + 2/92 = 51/230

Hence,
1/5 plus 2/92 as a fraction is 51/230.
