You DO need a common denominator to add, subtract, or compare fractions. You DO NOT need a common denominator to multiply or divide fractions.
Option 1: Find a common denominator for the two fractions. It need not be the least common denominator; for example, for two fractions, if you just multiply the two denominators, you get a common denominator. Convert all the fractions to the common denominator. Then you can compare. Option 2: Convert each fraction to decimal, by dividing the numerator by the denominator. Then you can compare the decimals.
No. Dividing fractions is achieved by inverting the divisor and multiplying the resulting fractions. To multiply fractions the numerators are multiplied together to form the new numerator and the denominators are multiplied together to form the new denominator.
To write equivalent fractions with the lowest common denominator, you first need to find the least common multiple (LCM) of the denominators of the fractions. Once you have the LCM, you can rewrite each fraction using that common denominator. This ensures that the fractions have the same denominator while maintaining their original values. Remember to simplify the fractions if needed to ensure they are in their lowest terms.
Common Denominator means that the denominators in two (or more) fractions are common, or the same. The common denominator is important because before you can add or subtract fractions, the fractions need to have a common denominator.Sometimes fractions have different denominators, like 2/3 and 3/4. If you want to add or subtract them, they need to have the same denominator. In order to do that, you find a common denominator which is the same thing as a common multiple, only with denominators.
You DO need a common denominator to add, subtract, or compare fractions. You DO NOT need a common denominator to multiply or divide fractions.

No, you do not need to find a common denominator when multiplying fractions. To multiply fractions, you simply multiply the numerators together and the denominators together. However, finding a common denominator can be helpful when simplifying the resulting fraction.
You have to find a common denominator, multiply them, subtract them and then simplify if you need to.
Assuming the fractions are "normalized" (the fractional part is less than 1): First compare the integer part. If the integer part is the same, you need to compare the fractions. If the denominator of the fractions is different, you have to convert to a common denominator. The simplest way to find a common denominator is to multiply both denominators (i.e., you don't need the LEAST common denominator - any common denominator will do).
No. Fractions don't need the same denominator in order to multiply them. The numerator of their product is simply the product of their numerators, and the denominator of their product is just the product of their denominators.
no u dnt need to have a common denominator.. Just multiply both the denominator and numerator of the fractions u are working on and u will arrive at the answers
