Question

what is a common denominator for \\(\frac{1}{3}\\) and \\(\frac{1}{4}\\)? 12 rewrite the command to show how many twelfths are in each fraction. new command 1: start at \\(\frac{?}{12}\\). move \\(\frac{?}{12}\\) to the left.

Explanation:

Step1: Convert 1/3 to twelfths

$\frac{1}{3} = \frac{1 \times 4}{3 \times 4} = \frac{4}{12}$

Step2: Convert 1/4 to twelfths

$\frac{1}{4} = \frac{1 \times 3}{4 \times 3} = \frac{3}{12}$

Step3: Determine start and move values

Start at $\frac{4}{12}$, move $\frac{3}{12}$ left.

Answer:

4, 1
