you can get a common denominator by multiplying the denominators together
For example 1/5 plus 1/9 common denominator is 5 x 9 = 45
9/45 + 5/45 = 14/45

When multiplying fractions do you times the denominators if they are the same?
no you do not
Fractions Have The Same Denominators?
Not always but they need to have the same denominators when adding or subtracting them.
What are the like fraction?
Like fractions are fractions with the same denominators.
What are similar fractions?
Similar fractions are those denominators the same.
Can you multiply fractions that have a different demonminator?
Yes. When multiplying and dividing fractions your denominators do not have to be the same. The denominators only haveto be the same if you are subtracting or adding them.
When multiplying fractions do you times the denominators if they are the same?
no you do not
IS THE LCD OF TWO FRACTIONS THE SAME AS THE LCM NUMERATORS AND FRACTIONS?
The LCD of two fractions is the same as the LCM of their denominators.
How is adding like fractions and adding unlike fractions the same?
If the denominators are not the same, then you have to use equivalent fractions which do have a common denominator . To do this, you need to find the least common multiple (LCM) of the two denominators. To add fractions with unlike denominators, rename the fractions with a common denominator. Then add and simplify.
What the difference between like and unlike fraction?
fractions having same denominators are like fractions & others are unlike fractions
Are the steps for like and unlike denominators the same or different?
It depends what you are doing with the fractions. If you are multiplying or dividing fraction, the denominators do not need to be the same and the calculation can be carried out immediately. If you are adding or subtracting fractions, the denominators must be the same; if you have different denominators, the fractions must first be changed into equivalent fractions with the same denominator. When the denominators are the same (or have been made the same as equivalent fractions from being different) the calculation can be carried out.
How do you divide fractions with common denominators?
you flip the last (second) fraction, and then you change the divide sign into a times sign. You can then times the fractions from there. You do not need the same denominator to times fractions.
Fractions Have The Same Denominators?
Not always but they need to have the same denominators when adding or subtracting them.
How do you minnous fractions?
Subtracting fractions is similar to adding fractions. If the fractions have the same denominator, you subtract the numerators. If the fractions have different denominators, you have to convert to a common denominator first.Subtracting fractions is similar to adding fractions.

Like fractions are fractions with the same denominators.
What are similar fractions?
Similar fractions are those denominators the same.
How do you compare improper fractions with larger numerators than denominators?
The same way as proper fractions. Make sure the denominators are the same. If they're not, convert them to equivalent fractions with similar denominators. Then you can see which numerator is greater.
Can you multiply fractions that have a different demonminator?
Yes. When multiplying and dividing fractions your denominators do not have to be the same. The denominators only haveto be the same if you are subtracting or adding them.
