stepladder [879]

The common denominator is 1

Given the expression:

$\frac{1/a-1/b}{1/a1/b}$

Find the LCM of the numerator to have:

$\dfrac{\frac{b-a}{ab} }{\frac{1}{a} \frac{1}{b} }$

Simplify both the numerator and the denominator to have:

$= \dfrac{\frac{b-a}{ab} }{\frac{1}{ab} }\\= \frac{b-a}{ab} \times ab\\=\frac{b-a}{1} \times 1 \\=\frac{b-a}{1}$

From the result, we can see that the common denominator is 1
