No. The smallest common denominator is 6 .
2
Expressed as a proper fraction in its simplest form, by dividing the numerator and denominator by 2, 2/6 is equal to 1/3 or one third.

They need a common denominator when you add them. For example, if you want to add 1/2 and 1/3, you need to change the fractions to equivalents that share the same denominator, so you can combine them. 1/2 + 1/3 = 3/6 + 2/6 = 5/6
When converting fractions to equivalent fractions, it must be remembered that you always multiply the numerator and denominator by the same amount. In this case, the denominator is 2 and we want it to be 6. Therefore we have to multiply top and bottom of the fraction by 3. Do this and we get 3/6. Thus the fraction equal to 1/2 with a denominator of 6 is 3/6.
3/6
Expressed as a fraction with the denominator 6, 1/2 is equal to 3/6 or three sixths.
3/6.
Multiplying the two numbers so that they have a common denominator, the sum 1/3 + 1/2 is the same as 2/6 + 3/6. This is equal to 5/6, or five-sixths, in its simplest terms.
It will help you to get the right answer. Just by looking at it, what do you think 1/2 + 1/3 is? If you realize that 1/2 is equal to 3/6 and 1/3 is equal to 2/6, then 5/6 is the obvious correct answer.
All fractions depend on the denominator, such as: 2/4 = 3/6 = 1/2
No. The smallest common denominator is 6 .
1/2 = 3/6 1/3 = 2/6 so your common denominator would be 6
No. When creating equivalent fractions both the numerator and denominator must be multiplied by the same number. To get from 3/18 to 6/18 the numerator has multiplied by 2 but the denominator has been multiplied by 1. Equivalent fractions are equal. As the denominator is the same, a comparison of the numerators tells if they are equal (and thus equivalent) or not: 3 ≠ 6 → 3/18 ≠ 6/18, thus they are not equivalent.
It is 3/6.
One fifth divided by two thirds is equal to approximately 0.33 or 1/3. To find the exact answer, you can first convert both fractions to have a common denominator and then divide the numerators. One fifth is equal to 1/5 and two thirds is equal to 4/6. When you have a common denominator of 6, the expression becomes: (1/5) / (4/6) = (1/5) * (6/4) = (6/5) * (1/4) = (6/5) / (4/6) = (66)/(54) = 36/20 = 18/10 = 1/5 + 3/10 = 1/5 + 1/3 Therefore, one fifth divided by two thirds is equal to 1/5 + 1/3, which can be simplified to 1/3.
