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!
Every set of denominators has a common denominator, even if it's only their product.
Divide the numerator and denominator by every common factor greater than 1.
Yes because they must all have the same denominator and this is found by working out their lowest common denominator.
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.
Every rational number, which includes integers, can be written as a fraction, with 1 in the denominator [bottom], or you could multiply the number by 2, and have this as the numerator [top], then have 2 in the denominator [bottom]. But when you say every number, the irrational numbers [such as pi, e, square root of 2, etc.]can not be written as a fraction.
Every set of denominators has a common denominator, even if it's only their product.
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.
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.

#1) The stock market is very risky.#2) Constant vigilance is required.#3) There is usually a transaction fee for every transaction.#4) Common stock is not as valuable as preferred stock.
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.
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.
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!
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.
