Step-by-Step Solution: 4/22 + 2/3
Step 1
Find the Least Common Denominator (LCD)
The denominators 22 and 3 are coprime (they share no common factors other than 1). Therefore, their Least Common Denominator (LCD) is simply their direct product: 22 ร 3 = 66.
LCD(22, 3) = 66
Step 2
Convert to Equivalent Fractions with Common Denominator 66
Multiply the numerator and denominator of 4/22 by 3, and multiply the numerator and denominator of 2/3 by 22 so both fractions share the common base 66.
4 ร 3/22 ร 3 = 12/66 and 2 ร 22/3 ร 22 = 44/66
Step 3
Add the Numerators
Now add the numerators (12 + 44 = 56) and keep the common denominator 66 unchanged.
12 + 44/66 = 56/66
Step 4
Simplify the Fraction to Lowest Terms
Find the Greatest Common Divisor (GCD) of 56 and 66, which is 2. Divide both the numerator and denominator by 2.
56 รท 2/66 รท 2 = 28/33
Step 5
Decimal & Percentage Representation
Dividing the numerator 28 by denominator 33 produces a repeating decimal (approximately 0.848485, or 84.8485%).
28 รท 33 = 0.848485 (84.8485%)
