2/3+6/20 using LCM Method:
What is 2/3 plus 6/20 as a fraction?
step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 2/3
Fraction B: 6/20
What to be found?
2/3+6/20 = ?
Find what's the sum of 2/3 and 6/20.
step 2 Compare the denominators of fractions 2/3 and 6/20 to identify whether it is a like or unlike fraction addition. Since the denominators of given fractions 2/3 and 6/20 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 6/20:
The LCM of 3 and 20 is 60.
step 4 Write the fractions 2/3 and 6/20 in the addition expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
=2/3+6/20
=(2 x 60)/(3 x 60)+(6 x 60)/(20 x 60)
step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
=40/60+18/60
step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
=1/60 x (40/1+18/1)
=1/60 x (40 + 18)
step 7Simplify the above expression further:
=1/60 x 58
= 58/60
=29/30
2/3+6/20=29/30
Hence,
