2. Cross multiplication method.

(1/8) + (2/89) using LCM Method:
What is 1/8 plus 2/89 as a fraction?

step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 1/8
Fraction B: 2/89

What to be found?
(1/8) + (2/89) = ?
Find what's the sum of 1/8 and 2/89.

step 2 Compare the denominators of fractions 1/8 and 2/89 to identify whether it is a like or unlike fraction addition. Since the denominators of given fractions 1/8 and 2/89 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 1/8 and 2/89:
The LCM of 8 and 89 is 712.

step 4 Write the fractions 1/8 and 2/89 in the addition expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
= 1/8 + 2/89
= [(1 x 712)/(8 x 712)] + [(2 x 712)/(89 x 712)]

step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
= 89/712 + 16/712

step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
= 1/712 x (89/1 + 16/1)
= 1/712 x (89 + 16)

step 7Simplify the above expression further:
= 1/712 x 105
= 105/712
1/8 + 2/89 = 105/712

Hence,
1/8 plus 2/89 as a fraction is 105/712.
