I assume you want to convert two fractions to a common denominator. Let's see an example. You want to add, subtract, or compare 1/4 and 5/6. The least common denominator is 12 - I assume you already know how to find that. It need not be the least common denominator; any common denominator - for example, the product of the two denominators - will work.
However, let's assume you want to convert to twelfths. To convert the fractions to twelfths, you do the following. To convert 1/4 to ?/12, note that the number 4 must be multiplied by 3 to get 12. In that case, the numerator, 1, must also be multiplied by 3. Thus, you get 3/12. Similarly, to convert 5/6 to ?/12, you need to multiply the bottom (and therefore also the top) by 2, so you get 10/12.
Well, isn't that just a happy little accident! If you're missing a numerator or denominator in a fraction, you can use what you know to solve for it. Look at the known parts of the fraction and use basic math to figure out the missing piece. Just remember, there are no mistakes, only happy little discoveries in the world of numbers!

You can multiply is numerator and denominator by the same number
Yes because the numerator will not be right if the denominator doesn't have the same as the other denominator which will mess up the answer
It is anImproper fraction,ONLY if the numerator is bigger than the denominator, and if the numerator and denominator are the same it is a whole number.example of an improper fraction: 5/3example of a whole number: 7/7
The same numerator as which numerator and the same denominator as which denominator?

when you divide the numerator and denominator by the same factor
Simply change the numerator and you will have another - different - fraction wit the same denominator.
if they have the same denominator just subtract it . if it doesn't than find the denominator.
Essentially the same way as you would do an ordinary division.If the numerator and denominator have the same sign then the answer is positive.If the numerator and denominator have different signs then the answer is negative.Essentially the same way as you would do an ordinary division.If the numerator and denominator have the same sign then the answer is positive.If the numerator and denominator have different signs then the answer is negative.Essentially the same way as you would do an ordinary division.If the numerator and denominator have the same sign then the answer is positive.If the numerator and denominator have different signs then the answer is negative.Essentially the same way as you would do an ordinary division.If the numerator and denominator have the same sign then the answer is positive.If the numerator and denominator have different signs then the answer is negative.
