2. Cross multiplication method.

(1/5) + (2/94) using LCM Method:
What is 1/5 plus 2/94 as a fraction?

step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 1/5
Fraction B: 2/94

What to be found?
(1/5) + (2/94) = ?
Find what's the sum of 1/5 and 2/94.

step 2 Compare the denominators of fractions 1/5 and 2/94 to identify whether it is a like or unlike fraction addition. Since the denominators of given fractions 1/5 and 2/94 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 2/94:
The LCM of 5 and 94 is 470.

step 4 Write the fractions 1/5 and 2/94 in the addition expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
= 1/5 + 2/94
= [(1 x 470)/(5 x 470)] + [(2 x 470)/(94 x 470)]

step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
= 94/470 + 10/470

step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
= 1/470 x (94/1 + 10/1)
= 1/470 x (94 + 10)

step 7Simplify the above expression further:
= 1/470 x 104
= 104/470
= 52/235
1/5 + 2/94 = 52/235

Hence,
1/5 plus 2/94 as a fraction is 52/235.
