Technically, 14 and 16 are integers, so they already share a common denominator of 1.

If you are asking how to find the lowest common denominator when the numbers on the bottom of a fraction are 14 and 16, you factor them both and only use common factors one time. Since 14 and 16 only share one common factor (2), you need to multiply 7 x 8 x 2, with a product of 112

If both numerators were even. (The two numbers on top of the fractions were also even), you can factor out the 2, getting you down to 56.

Cool question.
