32 is not the LOWEST common denominator. Which other denominator is divisible by 2, 8, and 16?

ummmm 4?
Ms. Sue
Can you divide 4 by 8 or 16 and get a whole number?

corie
no, it would be a decimal. im so confused. and im late! its not b, what is it?
Ms. Sue
16/16 = 1
16/8 = 2
16/4 = 4

The LCD is obviously 16.

Please learn your multiplication tables.
