Addition and subtraction are the only fraction operations that need a common denominator. Multiplication, division, and exponents do not need a common denominator. In fact, it is best to use reduced fractions otherwise it gets very messy.
You don't need a common denominator to divide fractions.
You don't need a common denominator to divide fractions.
Because it is not how multiplication or division are defined.
You need at least two fractions to calculate a common denominator.
No. Common denominators are needed for addition and subtraction, not multiplication or division.

When the numerator and denominator of the division do not have a common factor.
you don't need a CD for multiplication. only division.you do need a common denominator duhhh* * * * *No, you do not need a common denominator for multiplication or division. But you do need it for addition or sutraction.no you do not. You don't need one in division either. A common denom is only used in addition and subtraction.a equation for multiplying would beA a A*a-- * -- = -----B b B*bDividing is similar, just multiply by the inverse.A a A*b-- / -- = -----B b B*aAdding and subtracting are a little more complicated. Here is a formula to make finding the common denominator easy.A a (A*b)+(a*B)-- + -- = ---------------B b B*bA a (A*b)-(a*B)-- - -- = ---------------B b B*b
You DO need a common denominator to add, subtract, or compare fractions. You DO NOT need a common denominator to multiply or divide fractions.

You need at least two numbers to find a common denominator.
No.
You need at least two numbers to find something in common. 90 can be a common denominator of other numbers, but it can't have a common denominator all by itself.
