That's the least common denominator or LCD.
The least common denominator.
The least common multiple of two or more denominators is known as the least common denominator, or LCD.
The least common denominator is the least common multiple of the denominators of the fractions.
The least common denominator is 1. The greatest common denominator is 2. The least common multiple is 1,218.
The least common denominator is 3x.
The least common denominator is 60.
The least common denominator (LCD) is 1.
To subtract one fourth from seven twelfths, first, find a common denominator. The least common denominator of 12 and 4 is 12. Convert one fourth to twelfths: (1/4 = 3/12). Now, subtract: (7/12 - 3/12 = 4/12), which simplifies to (1/3). Therefore, seven twelfths minus one fourth equals one third.
a least common (LCD) denominator is a least common multiple (LCM); only it's a fraction and it's LCM is in the denominator's place.
A common denominator needs at least two figures; that's why it's called a 'common' denominator.
