2/8 + 1/80 as a fraction

Learn how to find what is 2/8 plus 1/80 in fraction form just in a few minutes. We have covered the easiest method to write 2/8 + 1/80 as a fraction and decimal.

Summary: 2/8 plus 1/80 = 21/80
Since both fractions have unequal denominators, 2/8 plus 1/80 is an unlike fractions addition. For adding unlike fractions, you have to first find the equivalent fractions for fraction 2/8 and fraction 1/80 in order to have the same denominators for both fractions. Therefore, you have to find the LCM of denominators 8 and 80. 80 is the LCM of 8 and 80. Multiplying the LCM 80 with the numerators and denominators of both fractions (2/8 x 80/80) + (1/80 x 80/80), and simplify further in order to have the common denominator. So the equivalent fraction for 2/8 is 20/80 and for 1/80 is 1/80. By simplifying this fraction addition 20/80 + 1/80, it becomes 21/80.

2. Cross multiplication method.

(2/8) + (1/80) using LCM Method:
What is 2/8 plus 1/80 as a fraction?

step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 2/8
Fraction B: 1/80

What to be found?
(2/8) + (1/80) = ?
Find what's the sum of 2/8 and 1/80.

step 2 Compare the denominators of fractions 2/8 and 1/80 to identify whether it is a like or unlike fraction addition. Since the denominators of given fractions 2/8 and 1/80 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 2/8 and 1/80:
The LCM of 8 and 80 is 80.

step 4 Write the fractions 2/8 and 1/80 in the addition expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
= 2/8 + 1/80
= [(2 x 80)/(8 x 80)] + [(1 x 80)/(80 x 80)]

step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
= 20/80 + 1/80

step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
= 1/80 x (20/1 + 1/1)
= 1/80 x (20 + 1)

step 7Simplify the above expression further:
= 1/80 x 21
= 21/80
2/8 + 1/80 = 21/80

Hence,
2/8 plus 1/80 as a fraction is 21/80.
