2. Cross multiplication method.

(5/6) + (2/11) using LCM Method:
What is 5/6 plus 2/11 as a fraction?

step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 5/6
Fraction B: 2/11

What to be found?
(5/6) + (2/11) = ?
Find what's the sum of 5/6 and 2/11.

step 2 Compare the denominators of fractions 5/6 and 2/11 to identify whether it is a like or unlike fraction addition. Since the denominators of given fractions 5/6 and 2/11 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 5/6 and 2/11:
The LCM of 6 and 11 is 66.

step 4 Write the fractions 5/6 and 2/11 in the addition expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
= 5/6 + 2/11
= [(5 x 66)/(6 x 66)] + [(2 x 66)/(11 x 66)]

step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
= 55/66 + 12/66

step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
= 1/66 x (55/1 + 12/1)
= 1/66 x (55 + 12)

step 7Simplify the above expression further:
= 1/66 x 67
= 67/66
5/6 + 2/11 = 67/66

Hence,
5/6 plus 2/11 as a fraction is 67/66.
