Question
Add: $\frac{8}{13}$ and $\frac{2}{3}$
✓
Answer
Given: $\frac{8}{13}$ and $\frac{2}{3}$
$\frac{8}{13}+\frac{2}{3}$
$LCM$ of $13$ and $3$ is $39$,
so we will convert each fraction into an equivalent fraction with denominator $39$.
$=\frac{8\times3}{13\times3}+\frac{2\times13}{3\times13}$
$=\frac{24}{39}+\frac{26}{39}$
$=\frac{24+26}{39}$
$=\frac{50}{39}$
$\frac{8}{13}+\frac{2}{3}$
$LCM$ of $13$ and $3$ is $39$,
so we will convert each fraction into an equivalent fraction with denominator $39$.
$=\frac{8\times3}{13\times3}+\frac{2\times13}{3\times13}$
$=\frac{24}{39}+\frac{26}{39}$
$=\frac{24+26}{39}$
$=\frac{50}{39}$
