2. Cross multiplication method.

(2/8) + (1/89) using LCM Method:
What is 2/8 plus 1/89 as a fraction?

step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 2/8
Fraction B: 1/89

What to be found?
(2/8) + (1/89) = ?
Find what's the sum of 2/8 and 1/89.

step 2 Compare the denominators of fractions 2/8 and 1/89 to identify whether it is a like or unlike fraction addition. Since the denominators of given fractions 2/8 and 1/89 are not equal, it is said to be unlike fractions addition.

The LCM of 8 and 89 is 712.

step 4 Write the fractions 2/8 and 1/89 in the addition expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
= 2/8 + 1/89
= [(2 x 712)/(8 x 712)] + [(1 x 712)/(89 x 712)]

step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
= 178/712 + 8/712

step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
= 1/712 x (178/1 + 8/1)
= 1/712 x (178 + 8)

step 7Simplify the above expression further:
= 1/712 x 186
= 186/712
= 93/356
