9/6+4/8 using LCM Method:
What is 9/6 plus 4/8 as a fraction?
step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 9/6
Fraction B: 4/8
What to be found?
9/6+4/8 = ?
Find what's the sum of 9/6 and 4/8.
step 2 Compare the denominators of fractions 9/6 and 4/8 to identify whether it is a like or unlike fraction addition. Since the denominators of given fractions 9/6 and 4/8 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 9/6 and 4/8:
The LCM of 6 and 8 is 24.
step 4 Write the fractions 9/6 and 4/8 in the addition expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
=9/6+4/8
=(9 x 24)/(6 x 24)+(4 x 24)/(8 x 24)
step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
=36/24+12/24
step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
=1/24 x (36/1+12/1)
=1/24 x (36 + 12)
step 7Simplify the above expression further:
=1/24 x 48
= 48/24
=2
9/6+4/8=2
Hence,
9/6 plus 4/8 equals to 2 in fraction.
9/6+4/8 using Cross Multiplication Method:
step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 9/6
Fraction B: 4/8
What to be found?
9/6+4/8 = ?
Find what's the sum of 9/6 and 4/8.
step 2 Find the product of numerator of Fraction A and denominator of Fraction B (9 x 8), find the product of numerator of Fraction B and denominator of Fraction A (4 x 6), and find the product of both denominators of Fraction A and Fraction B (6 x 8) and rewrite the equation as like the below:
= (9 x 8) + (4 x 6)/(6 x 8)
step 3 Simplify and rewrite the fraction:
= (72 + 24)/48
= 96/48
= 2
9/6+4/8 = 2
Hence,
9/6 plus 4/8 = 2
