(2/39) + (1/65) using LCM Method:
What is 2/39 plus 1/65 as a fraction?

step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 2/39
Fraction B: 1/65

What to be found?
(2/39) + (1/65) = ?
Find what's the sum of 2/39 and 1/65.

step 2 Compare the denominators of fractions 2/39 and 1/65 to identify whether it is a like or unlike fraction addition. Since the denominators of given fractions 2/39 and 1/65 are not equal, it is said to be unlike fractions addition.

The LCM of 39 and 65 is 195.

step 4 Write the fractions 2/39 and 1/65 in the addition expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
= 2/39 + 1/65
= [(2 x 195)/(39 x 195)] + [(1 x 195)/(65 x 195)]

step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
= 10/195 + 3/195

step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
= 1/195 x (10/1 + 3/1)
= 1/195 x (10 + 3)

step 7Simplify the above expression further:
= 1/195 x 13
= 13/195
= 1/15
