Question

What is the common denominator of 1/8 and 11/6

Answer 1

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

What we're asking ourselves here is... what is the least number possible that we can get as a denominator for both 1/8 and 11/6 without changing the value of either fraction.

Let's list off the first couple multiples of 8 and 6 to see the lowest number they can both become through multiplying:

8, 16, 24, 32, 40

6, 12, 18, 24, 30

Notice that both have a multiple of 24. This is the answer to the question. If you need more help, let me know! :)
