Both of them evenly divide 300, and that is the lowest common denominator. Actually you don't technically need the lowest common denominator, you just need a common denominator. In the end, 600 would work just as well. It is just that using the LCD allows you to use smaller numbers and less ugly arithmetic.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "John \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "Egw to Beta kai to Sigma \n" ); document.write( "My calculator said it, I believe it, that settles it \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
