2. Cross multiplication method.

(2/4) + (1/54) using LCM Method:
What is 2/4 plus 1/54 as a fraction?

step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 2/4
Fraction B: 1/54

What to be found?
(2/4) + (1/54) = ?
Find what's the sum of 2/4 and 1/54.

step 2 Compare the denominators of fractions 2/4 and 1/54 to identify whether it is a like or unlike fraction addition. Since the denominators of given fractions 2/4 and 1/54 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 1/54:
The LCM of 4 and 54 is 108.

step 4 Write the fractions 2/4 and 1/54 in the addition expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
= 2/4 + 1/54
= [(2 x 108)/(4 x 108)] + [(1 x 108)/(54 x 108)]

step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
= 54/108 + 2/108

step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
= 1/108 x (54/1 + 2/1)
= 1/108 x (54 + 2)

step 7Simplify the above expression further:
= 1/108 x 56
= 56/108
= 14/27
2/4 + 1/54 = 14/27

Hence,
2/4 plus 1/54 as a fraction is 14/27.
