2/6 + 1/32 as a fraction

Learn how to find what is 2/6 plus 1/32 in fraction form just in a few minutes. We have covered the easiest method to write 2/6 + 1/32 as a fraction and decimal.

Summary: 2/6 plus 1/32 = 35/96
Since both fractions have unequal denominators, 2/6 plus 1/32 is an unlike fractions addition. For adding unlike fractions, you have to first find the equivalent fractions for fraction 2/6 and fraction 1/32 in order to have the same denominators for both fractions. Therefore, you have to find the LCM of denominators 6 and 32. 96 is the LCM of 6 and 32. Multiplying the LCM 96 with the numerators and denominators of both fractions (2/6 x 96/96) + (1/32 x 96/96), and simplify further in order to have the common denominator. So the equivalent fraction for 2/6 is 32/96 and for 1/32 is 3/96. By simplifying this fraction addition 32/96 + 3/96, it becomes 35/96.

2. Cross multiplication method.

(2/6) + (1/32) using LCM Method:
What is 2/6 plus 1/32 as a fraction?

step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 2/6
Fraction B: 1/32

What to be found?
(2/6) + (1/32) = ?
Find what's the sum of 2/6 and 1/32.

step 2 Compare the denominators of fractions 2/6 and 1/32 to identify whether it is a like or unlike fraction addition. Since the denominators of given fractions 2/6 and 1/32 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 1/32:
The LCM of 6 and 32 is 96.

step 4 Write the fractions 2/6 and 1/32 in the addition expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
= 2/6 + 1/32
= [(2 x 96)/(6 x 96)] + [(1 x 96)/(32 x 96)]

step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
= 32/96 + 3/96

step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
= 1/96 x (32/1 + 3/1)
= 1/96 x (32 + 3)

step 7Simplify the above expression further:
= 1/96 x 35
= 35/96
2/6 + 1/32 = 35/96

Hence,
2/6 plus 1/32 as a fraction is 35/96.
