The common denominator of any two or more whole numbers, such as 3 and 7, will always be one (1) because 'common denominator' refers to the denominators of two or more fractions or mixed numbers, not whole numbers. So, a set of whole numbers (x,x) would have to be converted to their fraction equivalents, i.e., x/1, which will always yield a denominator of 1.

What is the least common denominator for 6 7 and 2?
They are not fractions, so they do not have denominators.
What are the common denominators of 9 and 7 and 3?

So, a set of whole numbers (x,x) would have to be converted to their fraction equivalents, i.e., x/1, which will always yield a denominator of 1.
What way is subracting fractions with unlike denominators like adding fractions with unlike denominators?
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.
Why do you need a common denominator?
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.
What is the lowest common multiple of the denominators?
You have to state the denominators to expect an answer
What common denominators of 3 and 5 and 7 and 9?
Only 1.
What are the common denominators of 7 and 10?
70
What is 3 over 4 plus 1 over 8?
3 1 7 4 + 8 is 8. Remember to change the denominators into common denominators. (3/4 would turn into 6/8)
What are the common denominators for a quarter and 7 tenths?
50
What is 7 plus 1 over 3?
1/7+1/3 first get common denominators 3/21+7/21 add the numerators 10/21
How do you add or subtract rational numbers with common denominators?
you subtract the top 2 numbers and then leave the denominators the same like: 7/8-4/8=3/8. Get it?
What are the common denominators of 3 and 5?
15
What are te common denominators of 7 4 14?
28
What is the least common denominator of 21 and 7?
The Least Common Denominator (or LCD) is the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of the denominators of a pair of fractions. I assume the 7 and 21 are the denominators of two fractions you need to add or subtract.LCD(7, 21) = 21.
How do you do least common denominators?
Find the LCM of the denominators. Since the LCM of 3 and 4 is 12, the least common denominator of 1/3 and 1/4 is 12.
What are two common denominators for 3 over 8 and 5 over 6?
24 and 48 are two possible common denominators for 3/8 and 5/6.
How so you add fractions?
If the fractions have the same denominators, just add the numerators: 2/7 + 3/7 = 5/7 If the fractions have different denominators, it is necessary to make them the same by finding the least common denominator, and converting the fractions. Example 1/3 + 1/4 The LCD for 3 and 4 is 12. 1/3 = 4/12 1/4 = 3/12 Now that the denominators are the same, we can add the numerators. 4/12 + 3/12 = 7/12 1/3 + 1/4 = 7/12
