Question

What is the least common denominator (LCD) for these fractions? 1/2 and 1/3

Answer 1

The LCD of 1/2 and 1/3 is 6

Rewriting input as fractions if necessary:

1/2, 1/3

For the denominators (2, 3) the least common multiple (LCM) is 6.

Therefore, the least common denominator (LCD) is 6.

Rewriting the original inputs as equivalent fractions with the LCD:

3/6, 2/6

Answer 2

The Least Common Denominator of both of those fractions is 6.
