Find the LCM of denominators, 9 is the LCM of 9 and 1. Multiply the LCM 9 with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions (1/9 x 9/9) + (5 x 9/9) and simplify further in order to have the common denominators. By simplifying the fraction addition expression becomes 46/9.
The below workout with step by step calculation shows how to find the equivalent fraction between 1/9 and 5 by adding fraction to a whole number . The sum in fraction form for 1/9 plus 5/1 can be obtained by using anyone of the two methods below.
1. LCM method
2. Cross multiplication method.
1/9+5 using LCM Method:
What is 1/9 plus 5 as a fraction?
step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 1/9
Fraction B: 5/1
What to be found?
1/9+5 = ?
Find what's the sum of 1/9 and 5.
step 2 Compare the denominators of fractions 1/9 and 5 to identify whether it is a like or unlike fraction addition. Since the denominators of given fractions 1/9 and 5 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 1/9 and 5:
The LCM of 9 and 1 is 9.
step 4 Write the fractions 1/9 and 5 in the addition expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
=1/9+5
=(1 x 9)/(9 x 9)+(5 x 9)/(1 x 9)
step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
=1/9+45/9
step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
=1/9 x (1/1+45/1)
=1/9 x (1 + 45)
step 7Simplify the above expression further:
=1/9 x 46
=46/9
1/9+5=46/9
Hence,
1/9 plus 5 equals to 46/9 in fraction.
1/9+5 using Cross Multiplication Method:
step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 1/9
Fraction B: 5/1
What to be found?
1/9+5 = ?
Find what's the sum of 1/9 and 5.
step 2 Find the product of numerator of Fraction A and denominator of Fraction B (1 x 1), find the product of numerator of Fraction B and denominator of Fraction A (5 x 9), and find the product of both denominators of Fraction A and Fraction B (9 x 1) and rewrite the equation as like the below:
= (1 x 1) + (5 x 9)/(9 x 1)
step 3 Simplify and rewrite the fraction:
= (1 + 45)/9
1/9+5 = 46/9
Hence,
1/9 plus 5 = 46/9
