Learn how to find what is 1/7 plus 2/58 in fraction form just in a few minutes. We have covered the easiest method to write 1/7 + 2/58 as a fraction and decimal.
Summary: 1/7 plus 2/58 = 36/203
Since both fractions have unequal denominators, 1/7 plus 2/58 is an unlike fractions addition. For adding unlike fractions, you have to first find the equivalent fractions for fraction 1/7 and fraction 2/58 in order to have the same denominators for both fractions. Therefore, you have to find the LCM of denominators 7 and 58. 406 is the LCM of 7 and 58. Multiplying the LCM 406 with the numerators and denominators of both fractions (1/7 x 406/406) + (2/58 x 406/406), and simplify further in order to have the common denominator. So the equivalent fraction for 1/7 is 58/406 and for 2/58 is 14/406. By simplifying this fraction addition 58/406 + 14/406, it becomes 72/406.
Pie Chart Representation: 1/7 + 2/58 = 36/203
The below workout with step by step calculation shows how to find the equivalent fraction between 1/7 and 2/58 by adding two fractions with different, unequal or unlike denominators. The sum in fraction form for 1/7 plus 2/58 can be obtained by using anyone of the two methods below.
1. LCM method
2. Cross multiplication method.
(1/7) + (2/58) using LCM Method:
What is 1/7 plus 2/58 as a fraction?
step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 1/7
Fraction B: 2/58
What to be found?
(1/7) + (2/58) = ?
Find what's the sum of 1/7 and 2/58.
step 2 Compare the denominators of fractions 1/7 and 2/58 to identify whether it is a like or unlike fraction addition. Since the denominators of given fractions 1/7 and 2/58 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 1/7 and 2/58:
The LCM of 7 and 58 is 406.
step 4 Write the fractions 1/7 and 2/58 in the addition expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
= 1/7 + 2/58
= [(1 x 406)/(7 x 406)] + [(2 x 406)/(58 x 406)]
step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
= 58/406 + 14/406
step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
= 1/406 x (58/1 + 14/1)
= 1/406 x (58 + 14)
step 7Simplify the above expression further:
= 1/406 x 72
= 72/406
= 36/203
1/7 + 2/58 = 36/203
Hence,
1/7 plus 2/58 as a fraction is 36/203.
1/7 + 2/58 using Cross Multiplication Method:
step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 1/7
Fraction B: 2/58
What to be found?
(1/7)+(2/58) = ?
Find what's the sum of 1/7 and 2/58.
step 2 Find the product of numerator of Fraction A and denominator of Fraction B (1 x 58), find the product of numerator of Fraction B and denominator of Fraction A (2 x 7), and find the product of both denominators of Fraction A and Fraction B (7 x 58) and rewrite the equation as like the below:
= (1 x 58) + (2 x 7)/(7 x 58)
step 3 Simplify and rewrite the fraction:
= (58 + 14)/406
= 72/406
= 36/203
1/7 + 2/58 = 36/203
Hence,
1/7 plus 2/58 in fraction is 36/203
