What is 63/58 + 1/11?

What is 63/58 + 1/11?

Here's how to add

63
58
+
1
11

Step 1

We still have different denominators (bottom numbers), though, so we need to get a common denominator. This will make the bottom numbers match. Multiply the denominators together first. Now, multiply each numerator by the other term's denominator.

Now we multiply 63 by 11, and get 693, then we multiply 58 by 11 and get 638.

63/58 times 11

Now for the second term. You multiply 1 by 58, and get 58, then multiply 58 by 11 and get 638.

1/11 times 58

This gives us a new problem that looks like so:

693
638
+
58
638

Step 2

Since our denominators match, we can add the numerators.

693 + 58 = 751

So what's the answer so far?

751
638

Step 3

Can this fraction be reduced?

First, we attempt to divide it by 2...
