12 is the denominator of 3/12 (three twelfths)
?/12 = 1/3 Multiply both the numerator and denominator by 4 on the 1/3 to make the denominators the same. 4/12 = 1/3 I know my explanation is a tad bit hard to comprehend, but i hope i helped you.
Find the least common denominator and convert each fraction to its equivalent. Example: 2/3 and 3/4 The least common denominator of 3 and 4 is 12. 2/3 = 8/12 3/4 = 9/12
You search for common factors in the numerator and the denominator. Then you divide numerator and denominator by this common fraction. For example, in the fraction 9/12, the common factor is 3. If you divide numerator and denominator (top and bottom) by 3, you get 3/4, which is an equivalent fraction.
To get the fraction with a denominator of 18 that is equivalent to 2/3, multiply 2/3 by 6/6:= 2/3 * 6/6= 12/18
3/4 x 3/3 = 9/12
12 is the denominator of 3/12 (three twelfths)
3/12
?/12 = 1/3 Multiply both the numerator and denominator by 4 on the 1/3 to make the denominators the same. 4/12 = 1/3 I know my explanation is a tad bit hard to comprehend, but i hope i helped you.

3/4 = 9/12
3*3/3*4 = 9/12
Change one fraction into an equivalent fraction so that both have the same denominator. 3/12 + 1/3 = 3/12 + 4/12 Both the numerator and denominator of 1/3 have been multiplied by 4 to convert it to the equivalent fraction 4/12. 3/12 + 4/12 = 7/12
be more specific
You have to find the fraction's common denominators so you can combine them. For instance, 7/12=1/3+1/4. The common denominator between 12, 3, and 4 is 12. So you must make every fraction into twelfths. 3*4=12, so 1*4=4. So, 1/3=4/12. Then, 4*3=12, so 1*3=3. So, 1/4=3/12. So, 4/12+3/12=7/12.
