To find the least common denominator of 1/3 and 1/4, we need to determine the smallest multiple that both denominators (3 and 4) have in common. The least common denominator is the least common multiple (LCM) of the denominators. The LCM of 3 and 4 is 12, so the least common denominator of 1/3 and 1/4 is 12.

What is the least common denominator of one third and one fifth?
15
How do you find the common denominator of 3 fractions?
Pick two of the fractions and find the Least Common Multiple of those two denominators. Then take that number, and find the Least Common Multiple between that and the third denominator. This number will be the Least Common Denominator between the three fractions.If you don't care to find the Least common denominator, then just take the three denominators, and multiply them together.
Is one third greater than one fourth?
yes it is, the smaller the denominator the bigger it is.
Is one third larger than one fourth?
yes. When you are working with fractions like this, the smaller the denominator, the larger the fraction.
What is one half add one third?
5/6 In order to solve you need a common denominator. This would be the LCD (least common denominator. The LCD in this case is 6. Multiply the top and bottom of the fraction by the same number to get the LCD on the denominator. 1/2 + 1/3 becomes 3/6 + 2/6=5/6
