What is 1/7 plus 4 as a fraction?
step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 1/7
Fraction B: 4/1
What to be found?
1/7+4 = ?
Find what's the sum of 1/7 and 4.
step 2 Compare the denominators of fractions 1/7 and 4 to identify whether it is a like or unlike fraction addition. Since the denominators of given fractions 1/7 and 4 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 4:
The LCM of 7 and 1 is 7.
step 4 Write the fractions 1/7 and 4 in the addition expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
=1/7+4
=(1 x 7)/(7 x 7)+(4 x 7)/(1 x 7)
step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
=1/7+28/7
step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
=1/7 x (1/1+28/1)
=1/7 x (1 + 28)
step 7Simplify the above expression further:
=1/7 x 29
=29/7
1/7+4=29/7
Hence,
