Hello!
The least common denominator is like the least common multiple. As you can see, these numbers already have the same denominators, and cannot be divided any further as they are prime.
Therefore, our answer is 3.
I hope this helps!

Answer:
5/12
Step-by-step explanation:
First you add 1/4+2/3.
You need to change the denominator so that they are equal to each other
If you multiply the 1/4 by 3/3 you will get 3/12 which is equal to 1/4
Then you need to do the same to 2/3. This time you need to multiply it by 4/4 to get the same denominator which will be 2/3*4/4=8/12
Then you add 3/12+8/12=11/12. You don't need to add the denominator.
After this you will need to subtract 11/12 and 1/2. This time you need to only change the denominator for 1/2.
You multiply the denominator and numerator by 6/6 to 1/2 and you will get 6/12 then you are going to subtract 11/12-6/12 and you will get 5/12
