To find the least common denominator (LCD) of five-sixteenths (5/16) and one-sixth (1/6), we need to determine the least common multiple (LCM) of the denominators 16 and 6. The prime factorization of 16 is (2^4) and for 6, it is (2^1 \times 3^1). The LCM takes the highest power of each prime, which gives us (2^4 \times 3^1 = 48). Therefore, the LCD of five-sixteenths and one-sixth is 48.
