Learn how to find what is 2/3 plus 1/65 in fraction form just in a few minutes. We have covered the easiest method to write 2/3 + 1/65 as a fraction and decimal.
Summary: 2/3 plus 1/65 = 133/195
Since both fractions have unequal denominators, 2/3 plus 1/65 is an unlike fractions addition. For adding unlike fractions, you have to first find the equivalent fractions for fraction 2/3 and fraction 1/65 in order to have the same denominators for both fractions. Therefore, you have to find the LCM of denominators 3 and 65. 195 is the LCM of 3 and 65. Multiplying the LCM 195 with the numerators and denominators of both fractions (2/3 x 195/195) + (1/65 x 195/195), and simplify further in order to have the common denominator. So the equivalent fraction for 2/3 is 130/195 and for 1/65 is 3/195. By simplifying this fraction addition 130/195 + 3/195, it becomes 133/195.

The below workout with step by step calculation shows how to find the equivalent fraction between 2/3 and 1/65 by adding two fractions with different, unequal or unlike denominators. The sum in fraction form for 2/3 plus 1/65 can be obtained by using anyone of the two methods below.
1. LCM method
2. Cross multiplication method.
(2/3) + (1/65) using LCM Method:
What is 2/3 plus 1/65 as a fraction?
step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 2/3
Fraction B: 1/65
What to be found?
(2/3) + (1/65) = ?
Find what's the sum of 2/3 and 1/65.
step 2 Compare the denominators of fractions 2/3 and 1/65 to identify whether it is a like or unlike fraction addition. Since the denominators of given fractions 2/3 and 1/65 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 2/3 and 1/65:
The LCM of 3 and 65 is 195.
step 4 Write the fractions 2/3 and 1/65 in the addition expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
= 2/3 + 1/65
= [(2 x 195)/(3 x 195)] + [(1 x 195)/(65 x 195)]
step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
= 130/195 + 3/195
step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
= 1/195 x (130/1 + 3/1)
= 1/195 x (130 + 3)
step 7Simplify the above expression further:
= 1/195 x 133
= 133/195
2/3 + 1/65 = 133/195
Hence,
2/3 plus 1/65 as a fraction is 133/195.
2/3 + 1/65 using Cross Multiplication Method:
step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 2/3
Fraction B: 1/65
What to be found?
(2/3)+(1/65) = ?
Find what's the sum of 2/3 and 1/65.
step 2 Find the product of numerator of Fraction A and denominator of Fraction B (2 x 65), find the product of numerator of Fraction B and denominator of Fraction A (1 x 3), and find the product of both denominators of Fraction A and Fraction B (3 x 65) and rewrite the equation as like the below:
= (2 x 65) + (1 x 3)/(3 x 65)
step 3 Simplify and rewrite the fraction:
= (130 + 3)/195
2/3 + 1/65 = 133/195
