I believe that kids as young as 7, maybe 6 can learn this skill!

I wonder what would we learn today.❤

@Surferchicusa 3 ай бұрын

I was taught to multiply the denominators to each other to find that lowest common denominator, ie: 3x4=12, so 12 is the common denominator.

@MathBellk5 3 ай бұрын

Yes that is definitely one way to find a common denominator! Sometimes doing it that way won't always get you the lowest common denominator though. For example, if the denominators were 4 and 6, if you multiply them, you get 24, but their lowest common denominator is actually 12.
