What is 2/6 + 1/22 in fraction?
2/6 + 1/22 equals to 25/66 in fraction form.
Learn how to find what is 2/6 plus 1/22 in fraction form just in a few minutes. We have covered the easiest method to write 2/6 + 1/22 as a fraction and decimal.
Summary: 2/6 plus 1/22 = 25/66
Since both fractions have unequal denominators, 2/6 plus 1/22 is an unlike fractions addition. For adding unlike fractions, you have to first find the equivalent fractions for fraction 2/6 and fraction 1/22 in order to have the same denominators for both fractions. Therefore, you have to find the LCM of denominators 6 and 22. 66 is the LCM of 6 and 22. Multiplying the LCM 66 with the numerators and denominators of both fractions (2/6 x 66/66) + (1/22 x 66/66), and simplify further in order to have the common denominator. So the equivalent fraction for 2/6 is 22/66 and for 1/22 is 3/66. By simplifying this fraction addition 22/66 + 3/66, it becomes 25/66.
Pie Chart Representation: 2/6 + 1/22 = 25/66
The below workout with step by step calculation shows how to find the equivalent fraction between 2/6 and 1/22 by adding two fractions with different, unequal or unlike denominators. The sum in fraction form for 2/6 plus 1/22 can be obtained by using anyone of the two methods below.
1. LCM method
2. Cross multiplication method.
(2/6) + (1/22) using LCM Method:
What is 2/6 plus 1/22 as a fraction?
step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 2/6
Fraction B: 1/22
What to be found?
(2/6) + (1/22) = ?
Find what's the sum of 2/6 and 1/22.
step 2 Compare the denominators of fractions 2/6 and 1/22 to identify whether it is a like or unlike fraction addition. Since the denominators of given fractions 2/6 and 1/22 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 2/6 and 1/22:
The LCM of 6 and 22 is 66.
step 4 Write the fractions 2/6 and 1/22 in the addition expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
= 2/6 + 1/22
= [(2 x 66)/(6 x 66)] + [(1 x 66)/(22 x 66)]
step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
= 22/66 + 3/66
step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
= 1/66 x (22/1 + 3/1)
= 1/66 x (22 + 3)
step 7Simplify the above expression further:
= 1/66 x 25
= 25/66
2/6 + 1/22 = 25/66
Hence,
2/6 plus 1/22 as a fraction is 25/66.
2/6 + 1/22 using Cross Multiplication Method:
step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 2/6
Fraction B: 1/22
What to be found?
(2/6)+(1/22) = ?
Find what's the sum of 2/6 and 1/22.
step 2 Find the product of numerator of Fraction A and denominator of Fraction B (2 x 22), find the product of numerator of Fraction B and denominator of Fraction A (1 x 6), and find the product of both denominators of Fraction A and Fraction B (6 x 22) and rewrite the equation as like the below:
= (2 x 22) + (1 x 6)/(6 x 22)
step 3 Simplify and rewrite the fraction:
= (44 + 6)/132
= 50/132
= 25/66
2/6 + 1/22 = 25/66
Hence,
2/6 plus 1/22 in fraction is 25/66
