How do you rename dissimilar fractions to similar fractions?
2/3,3/8Find the LCD. The LCD of 3 and 8 is 24. Multiply the fractions by whatever it takes to make 24.2/3 x 8/8 = 16/243/8 x 3/3 = 9/24
What is the LCD for fractions?
The LCD for fractions is the LCM (least common multiple) of all of the denominators.
Express the fractions of 34 76 and 58 with the lcd?
how do u exspress fractions how do u exspress fractions
What happens to the size of the fractional units when you renamed the fraction?
The answer depends on what you do to rename the fractions.
The lcd for the fractions 13 34 532 and 89 is what?
288
Why would you want to rename fractions with the LCD?
Possible reasons: To add or subtract fractions, To compare fractions with different denominators.

Comparing fractions without using an lcd?
It is easy: just convert to decimal fractions.
how to rename fractions using LCM?
When adding or subtracting fractions with different denominators their lowest common denominator must be found first by using the LCM of their denominators
What is the LCD for fractions?
The LCD for fractions is the LCM (least common multiple) of all of the denominators.
When is it useful to know multiples of a number?
When reducing fractions to their lowest terms or finding the LCD of fractions
IS THE LCD OF TWO FRACTIONS THE SAME AS THE LCM NUMERATORS AND FRACTIONS?
The LCD of two fractions is the same as the LCM of their denominators.
Can you add fractions using the LCD will you never have to simplify the answer?
Not true. Try 1/6 + 1/3
What is three eighths plus one fourth?
The denominators are different, so find the equivalent fractions using the LCD , then add the fractions with the denominators.
What is the algorithm for adding fractions?
LCD
How the LCD of two or more fractions could be of use?
Once you find the LCD, convert the fractions to their equivalents and then you can add and/or subtract them correctly.
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.
