The greatest common denominator of any two or more whole numbers, such as 12 15 and 21, will always be one (1) because 'common denominator' refers to the denominators of two or more fractions or mixed numbers, not whole numbers. So, a set of whole numbers (x,x) would have to be converted to their fraction equivalents, i.e., x/1, which will always yield a denominator of 1.

Find the LCM of the denominators. Since the LCM of 3 and 4 is 12, the least common denominator of 1/3 and 1/4 is 12.

What is a explanation for the least common denominator for 3 and 12?

if you mean for 1/3 and 1/12, then to find common denominators, you just list multiples of the denominators 3 and 12. for 3 :3, 6, 9, 12... for 12:12, 24, 36... 12 is the smallest number in both lists, so it is the least common denominator.
