It does not, though the answer does depend on the nature of transactions. Despite popular belief to the contrary, lots of bartering - formal or informal - goes on all the time. Car-share is a somewhat formal example. You take your children and their friends to a party, one of the other parents brings them back is a more informal transaction. No money involved.

And the only loser is the taxman!

What two denominators have no common denominator?

Every set of denominators has a common denominator, even if it's only their product.


Why do you clear fractions in a linear equation?

Multiply every term in the equation by a common denominator of all the fractions. The least common denominator (if different) will result in smaller numbers that you then have to work with but it is not essential that you use it.


What is the common denominator for 4.7 and 2.3?

The concept of a common denominator makes sense for integers but not for fractions - rational or decimal. This is because in the set of fractions, every non-zero fraction is a factor of any number.


How do you completely simplify a fraction?

Divide the numerator and denominator by every common factor greater than 1.


Does every step in addition and subtraction of different denominators have a mathematical concept involved?

Yes because they must all have the same denominator and this is found by working out their lowest common denominator.


What is the least common denominator of 25 and 30?

Least common denominator: the smallest multiple or factor that is exactly divisible by every member of a set of numbers. Factors of 25: 1, 5, 25 Factors of 30: 1,3,5,10,30 Shared factors of 25 and 30: 1,5 Therefore, the least common denominator would be 1 because it is the smallest factor shared between the two numbers.

How would 8 and 10 become a common denominator?

They would become common denominators if there were a set of numbers such that a positive integer that every member of the set divided evenly was 8 or 10.


What do you do to a fraction to get it in lowest form?

You cancel every factor in common to the numerator and denominator. If you cancel the highest common factor, this takes only one step. otherwise you have to keep canceling until there is nothing to cancel.


What is the least common denominator of 5 6 7?

It is not possible to give a sensible answer to this question. The least common denominator (LCD) refers to a multiple that is COMMON to two or more numbers. You have only one number in the question!


How do you do least common factors with fractions?

You cannot.Every non-zero number is a factor of every fraction and so the idea is meaningless. You could look for the least common factors of the numerators, or the denominators, or the numerator and denominator of a single fraction. However, all of these are pointless since the least common factor in every case will be 1.
