You don't need a common denominator to multiply or divide fractions.
To multiply fractions, multiply the numerators and the denominators, e.g.:
1/2 x 3/5 = (1/3) / (2/5) = 3/10
To divide fractions, multiply the first fraction with the reciprocal of the second.
1/2 divided by 5/3 is the same as 1/2 times 3/5.
When the numerator and denominator of the division do not have a common factor.
No. Common denominators are needed for addition and subtraction, not multiplication or division.
A common denominator is 7.A common denominator is 7.A common denominator is 7.A common denominator is 7.
There can be no greatest common denominator. For supose x is the greatest common denominator. ie 24 divides x and 36 divides x. Then 2x is a common denominator and 2x > x so 2x is a greater common denominator than the greatest common denominator. That contradiction implies that there is no greatest common denominator.
The numerator goes in the division box.
No, You only need a common denominator when adding or subtracting fractions.
When the numerator and denominator of the division do not have a common factor.
Because it is not how multiplication or division are defined.
No. Common denominators are needed for addition and subtraction, not multiplication or division.
Because a common denominator of a set of numbers is a multiple - not a factor - of each one. A multiple, as might be expected from its name, requires multiplication, not division.
Addition and subtraction are the only fraction operations that need a common denominator. Multiplication, division, and exponents do not need a common denominator. In fact, it is best to use reduced fractions otherwise it gets very messy.
