5/6 + 11 as a fraction

Learn how to find what is 5/6 plus 11 in fraction form just in a few minutes. We have covered the easiest method to write 5/6 + 11 as a fraction and decimal.

Summary: 5/6 plus 11 = 71/6
Since both fractions have unequal denominators, 5/6 plus 11 is an unlike fractions addition. For adding unlike fractions, you have to first find the equivalent fractions for fraction 5/6 and fraction 11 in order to have the same denominators for both fractions. Therefore, you have to find the LCM of denominators 6 and 1. 6 is the LCM of 6 and 1. Multiplying the LCM 6 with the numerators and denominators of both fractions (5/6 x 6/6) + (11 x 6/6), and simplify further in order to have the common denominator. So the equivalent fraction for 5/6 is 5/6 and for 11 is 66/6. By simplifying this fraction addition 5/6 + 66/6, it becomes 71/6.

The LCM of 6 and 1 is 6.

step 4 Write the fractions 5/6 and 11 in the addition expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
= 5/6 + 11
= [(5 x 6)/(6 x 6)] + [(11 x 6)/(1 x 6)]

step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
= 5/6 + 66/6

step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
= 1/6 x (5/1 + 66/1)
= 1/6 x (5 + 66)

step 7Simplify the above expression further:
= 1/6 x 71
= 71/6
5/6 + 11 = 71/6
