The lowest common denominator of any two or more whole numbers, such as 8 and 32, 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.

What is three fourths minus five eighths?
First you need a common denominator: 3/4 and 5/8, the common denominator is 8. (4x2=8, 8x1=8) Multiply both the numerator and denominator of 3/4 by 2 so that it becomes 6/8. Now that a common denominator is established, you may subtract them with ease. 6/8 - 5/8 = 1/8.
What fraction has its simplest form as 7 over 8?
When the numerator and the denominator of a fraction have no common factor other than one, the fraction is in lowest term such as 7/8.In order to express a fraction in its lowest terms, divide the numerator and the denominator by the greatest common factor (GCF). For example:Express 16/36 in lowest terms.1) List the factors of the numerator.The factors of 16 are 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16.2) List the factors of the denominator.The factors of 36 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, and 363) Find the greatest common factor (GCF).The greatest common factor to both 16mand 36 is 4.The GCF is 4.4) Divide the numerator and the denominator of the fraction by the GCF.(16 ÷ 4)/(36 ÷ 4) = 4/95) Write the fraction in lowest terms.4/916/36 is expressed in lowest terms is 4/9.
