Answer:
Jing-mei's mother took her to a <em>"beauty training school" </em>to get her daughter to look like Shirley Temple which only resulted in a disastrous look.
Explanation:
Amy Tan's short story "Two Kinds" revolves around the story of how a Chinese immigrant child is 'expected' to be a prodigy and made to 'be molded' with the American way of life. The story presents how the protagonist’s mother tried to 'help' her daughter make a name for herself in America.
In the given paragraph, Jing-mei narrates how her mother wanted to 'shape' her into becoming the next Shirley Temple. She wanted her daughter to become famous. So, she took her to a <em>"beauty training school"</em> and cut her hair, which only resulted in a much more disastrous outcome.
First I need to say that the common multiple is when two or more numbers meet up at the same point like 5 and 3 meeting up at 15. The common denominator works almost exactly the same way. It involve two fractions' denominators meeting up like 1/5 and 1/3 meeting up at ?/15 with ? being what the numerator would be (like 1/5 becoming 3/15 because 5 x 3= 15 and you must do so to the numerator so 1 x 3=3. 3/15). So they are alike in the way that they both involve two or more numbers' multiples meeting up, and the common multiple is basically used to find the common denominator.
