By simplifying the fraction addition expression becomes 158/60.
The below workout with step by step calculation shows how to find the equivalent fraction between 9/5 and 10/12 by adding two fractions with different, unequal or unlike denominators. The sum in fraction form for 9/5 plus 10/12 can be obtained by using anyone of the two methods below.
1. LCM method
2. Cross multiplication method.
9/5+10/12 using LCM Method:
What is 9/5 plus 10/12 as a fraction?
step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 9/5
Fraction B: 10/12
What to be found?
9/5+10/12 = ?
Find what's the sum of 9/5 and 10/12.
step 2 Compare the denominators of fractions 9/5 and 10/12 to identify whether it is a like or unlike fraction addition. Since the denominators of given fractions 9/5 and 10/12 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 9/5 and 10/12:
The LCM of 5 and 12 is 60.
step 4 Write the fractions 9/5 and 10/12 in the addition expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
=9/5+10/12
=(9 x 60)/(5 x 60)+(10 x 60)/(12 x 60)
step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
=108/60+50/60
step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
=1/60 x (108/1+50/1)
=1/60 x (108 + 50)
step 7Simplify the above expression further:
=1/60 x 158
= 158/60
=79/30
9/5+10/12=79/30
Hence,
9/5 plus 10/12 equals to 79/30 in fraction.
9/5+10/12 using Cross Multiplication Method:
step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 9/5
Fraction B: 10/12
What to be found?
9/5+10/12 = ?
Find what's the sum of 9/5 and 10/12.
step 2 Find the product of numerator of Fraction A and denominator of Fraction B (9 x 12), find the product of numerator of Fraction B and denominator of Fraction A (10 x 5), and find the product of both denominators of Fraction A and Fraction B (5 x 12) and rewrite the equation as like the below:
= (9 x 12) + (10 x 5)/(5 x 12)
step 3 Simplify and rewrite the fraction:
= (108 + 50)/60
= 158/60
= 79/30
9/5+10/12 = 79/30
Hence,
9/5 plus 10/12 = 79/30
