Finding Least Common Denominators Monomials
  • Find the LCD of the numbers
  • List any variable that occurs ANYWHERE in ANY
    denominator
  • Give each variable its BIGGEST exponent

Making Equivalent Expressions
2 5
  • Rewrite numerators
  • Make new denominators using LCD
  • Determine old denom. X ? LCD and multiply
    numerator by ?
  • Write new expressions

The Whole Process
2 5
  • Rewrite numerators
  • Make new denominators using LCD
  • Make equivalent expressions
  • Combine Expressions over One Denominator
