What else can I help you with?
Do you need common denominators when subtracting fractions?
Yes. You need common denominators if you want to:Add fractionsSubtract fractionsCompare fractions ("which is larger?")You do not need common denominators to multiply or divide fractions. Thus, in the case of fractions, multiplication and division is actually easier than addition and subtraction.
How do you subtract fractions without alike denominators?
Convert unlike fractions to equivalent fractions with common denominators by finding the LCM of the denominators.
How do you write fractions with common denominators?
multiply the denominators
When adding fractions with unlike denominators it is most helpful if the fractions are renamed using the?
If the denominators are not the same, then you have to use equivalent fractions which do have a common denominator . To do this, you need to find the least common multiple (LCM) of the two denominators. To add fractions with unlike denominators, rename the fractions with a common denominator.
When do you have to use the common denominators?
You use them when there are 2 fractions with different denominators.
How do you divide fractions with un common denominators?
When dividing fractions, the denominators don't matter. Multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second.

What way is subracting fractions with unlike denominators like adding fractions with unlike denominators?
If the denominators are not the same, then you have to use equivalent fractions which do have a common denominator . To do this, you need to find the least common multiple (LCM) of the two denominators.
How do you subtract fractions without alike denominators?
Convert unlike fractions to equivalent fractions with common denominators by finding the LCM of the denominators.
How do you write fractions with common denominators?
multiply the denominators
What are the steps to finding the mean of 2 fractions?
first you have to find the common denominator and make the 2 fractions denominators the same then you add them and divide them

What is the least common denominator of two fractions?
The least common denominator is the least common multiple of the denominators of the fractions.
Fractions with unlike denominators and no common factors to have common denominators?
Multiply them by each other.
What is an common multiple of the denominators for two or more fractions?
Multiplying the denominators together of two or more unlike fractions will get you a common multiple.
What is a name for fractions with different common denominators?
Dissimilar fractions.
When do you have to use the common denominators?
You use them when there are 2 fractions with different denominators.
