What does the term least common denominator mean?
In mathematics, the lowest common denominator or least common denominator (abbreviated LCD) is the least common multiple of the denominators of a set of fractions. It simplifies adding, subtracting, and comparing fractions.
In the set of rational numbers the complement of the set of integers is the set of fractions?
Only if they are fractions in their simplified form.
What the rule for comparing the same numerator?
When comparing fractions with the same numerator, the rule is straightforward: the fraction with the smaller denominator is greater. This is because a smaller denominator means that the whole is divided into fewer parts, making each part larger. For example, ( \frac{3}{4} ) is greater than ( \frac{3}{5} ) since 4 results in larger pieces than 5.

How do you find the average fraction of a set of fractions?
First add all the fractions together. Then, divide this sum by the total number of fractions that were in the set. This quotient is your average fraction.
What are three rules you can use to compare fractions?
Rule #1 When two fractions have the same denominator, the bigger fraction is the one with the bigger numerator. Rule # 2 When comparing fractions that have the same numerator, the bigger fraction is the one with the smaller denominator. Rule # 3 You can convert the fractions and then just put the greater than, less than or equal to sign to see what the comparison is between the fractions.
Why does the butterfly method work when comparing fractions?
it works when comparing fractions by multiplying the fractions to see whitch one is greater not greater and equal
What does comparing fractans mean?
The correct spelling is fractions instead of fractans. Comparing fractions means to tell which fraction is smaller and which is bigger.
What is the name for fractions that are commonly used for comparing measuring and estimating?
benchmark fractions
Explain how comparing fractions with like denominators differs from comparing fractions with unlike denominators?
Because when you compare fractions with the same denominators, you do not have to find the least common denominator (LCM or LCD).
Comparing fractions sheet 1?
RIGHT
Comparing fractions without using an lcd?
It is easy: just convert to decimal fractions.
When do you use cross multiplication?
When comparing or simplifying fractions.
What does comparing fractions mean?
it means that you look at 2 or more fractions and see their simalaritys and differences
What does the term least common denominator mean?
In mathematics, the lowest common denominator or least common denominator (abbreviated LCD) is the least common multiple of the denominators of a set of fractions. It simplifies adding, subtracting, and comparing fractions.
What do you do when comparing fractions and the denominator and the numerator are different?
Convert them into equivalent fractions with the same denominator and then compare the numerators.
In the set of rational numbers the complement of the set of integers is the set of fractions?
Only if they are fractions in their simplified form.
