2/4+16 using LCM Method:
What is 2/4 plus 16 as a fraction?
step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 2/4
Fraction B: 16/1
What to be found?
2/4+16 = ?
Find what's the sum of 2/4 and 16.
step 2 Compare the denominators of fractions 2/4 and 16 to identify whether it is a like or unlike fraction addition. Since the denominators of given fractions 2/4 and 16 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 2/4 and 16:
The LCM of 4 and 1 is 4.
step 4 Write the fractions 2/4 and 16 in the addition expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
=2/4+16
=(2 x 4)/(4 x 4)+(16 x 4)/(1 x 4)
step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
=2/4+64/4
step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
=1/4 x (2/1+64/1)
=1/4 x (2 + 64)
step 7Simplify the above expression further:
=1/4 x 66
= 66/4
=33/2
2/4+16=33/2
Hence,
2/4 plus 16 equals to 33/2 in fraction.
