What is used in changing dissimilar fractions to similar fractions?
Finding the lowest common denominator
How do you find the LCM multiple for two fractions?
The LCM is used for integers, not fractions. If you're trying to add unlike fractions, take the LCM of the denominators (known in this case as the least common denominator, or LCD), convert the fractions and proceed.
What does GCF mean in fractions?
GCF doesn't apply to fractions, only to whole numbers. When those numbers are the numerator and denominator of a fraction, the GCF can be used to reduce it to its simplest form.
What fraction is closest to zero?
Fractions are infinitely dense and this means that between any two fractions there an infinite number of fractions. If any fraction, f, laid claims to being the nearest, there would be infinitely many fractions between 0 and f and so infinitely many fractions which were closer to 0. This means that f could not be the closest. The argument can be used again and again and so there cannot be a fraction closest to 0.
How are equivalent fractions used in renaming when subtracting?
When subtracting one fraction to another, one or both fractions are renamed so that they have the same denominators. Then the result of the subtraction is the equal to the subtraction of the numerators divided by the common denominator.
What is the name for fractions that are commonly used for comparing measuring and estimating?
benchmark fractions
Can moving objects be a reference point?
No because enable to see if the object is moving it needs a reference point other than itself.
Which state should a reference point be to be used to determine?
The reference point should be stationary, or not moving.

Which state should a reference point be in to be used to determine motion?

Which state should a reference point be in to used to determine motion?

What is the reference point used for?

A place or object used for comparison to determine if something is in motion is called what?
A landmark - or reference point.
What is the meaning of the word benchmark when used with reference to motion picture production?
a point of reference for a measurement
