Answer:
12 is the least common denominator for 1/3 and 1/12
Step-by-step explanation:
If we list all the multiple of 3 and 12, we can find the smallest common multiple.
3- 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, 21
12- 12, 24, 36, 48, 60
As you can see, 12 is the LCM (least common multiple).
You can double check by changing the denominators.
[tex]\frac{1*4}{3*4} = \frac{4}{12}[/tex]
