Learn how to find what is 2/8 plus 1/90 in fraction form just in a few minutes. We have covered the easiest method to write 2/8 + 1/90 as a fraction and decimal.
Summary: 2/8 plus 1/90 = 47/180
Since both fractions have unequal denominators, 2/8 plus 1/90 is an unlike fractions addition. For adding unlike fractions, you have to first find the equivalent fractions for fraction 2/8 and fraction 1/90 in order to have the same denominators for both fractions. Therefore, you have to find the LCM of denominators 8 and 90. 360 is the LCM of 8 and 90. Multiplying the LCM 360 with the numerators and denominators of both fractions (2/8 x 360/360) + (1/90 x 360/360), and simplify further in order to have the common denominator. So the equivalent fraction for 2/8 is 90/360 and for 1/90 is 4/360. By simplifying this fraction addition 90/360 + 4/360, it becomes 94/360.
Pie Chart Representation: 2/8 + 1/90 = 47/180
The below workout with step by step calculation shows how to find the equivalent fraction between 2/8 and 1/90 by adding two fractions with different, unequal or unlike denominators. The sum in fraction form for 2/8 plus 1/90 can be obtained by using anyone of the two methods below.
1. LCM method
2. Cross multiplication method.
(2/8) + (1/90) using LCM Method:
What is 2/8 plus 1/90 as a fraction?
step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 2/8
Fraction B: 1/90
What to be found?
(2/8) + (1/90) = ?
Find what's the sum of 2/8 and 1/90.
step 2 Compare the denominators of fractions 2/8 and 1/90 to identify whether it is a like or unlike fraction addition. Since the denominators of given fractions 2/8 and 1/90 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 1/90:
The LCM of 8 and 90 is 360.
step 4 Write the fractions 2/8 and 1/90 in the addition expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
= 2/8 + 1/90
= [(2 x 360)/(8 x 360)] + [(1 x 360)/(90 x 360)]
step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
= 90/360 + 4/360
step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
= 1/360 x (90/1 + 4/1)
= 1/360 x (90 + 4)
step 7Simplify the above expression further:
= 1/360 x 94
= 94/360
= 47/180
2/8 + 1/90 = 47/180
Hence,
2/8 plus 1/90 as a fraction is 47/180.
2/8 + 1/90 using Cross Multiplication Method:
step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 2/8
Fraction B: 1/90
What to be found?
(2/8)+(1/90) = ?
Find what's the sum of 2/8 and 1/90.
step 2 Find the product of numerator of Fraction A and denominator of Fraction B (2 x 90), find the product of numerator of Fraction B and denominator of Fraction A (1 x 8), and find the product of both denominators of Fraction A and Fraction B (8 x 90) and rewrite the equation as like the below:
= (2 x 90) + (1 x 8)/(8 x 90)
step 3 Simplify and rewrite the fraction:
= (180 + 8)/720
= 188/720
= 47/180
2/8 + 1/90 = 47/180
Hence,
2/8 plus 1/90 in fraction is 47/180
