First you find the common deoninator.
Step 1: Reduce (simplify) entered fractions to lowest terms, if the case:Fraction: 5 / 6 it's already reduced to lowest terms
Fraction: 11 / 12 it's already reduced to lowest terms
Step 2: Calculate LCM (lowest common multiple) of the reduced fractions' denominators, it will be the common denominator of the compared fractions:Denominator 6, factored = 2 * 3
Denominator 12, factored = 22 * 3
LCM (6, 12) = 22 * 3 = 12 Step 3: Calculate each fraction's expanding number (LCM divided by each fraction's denominator) : For fraction: 5 / 6 is 12 : 6 = (22 * 3) : 6 = 2
For fraction: 11 / 12 is 12 : 12 = (22 * 3) : 12 = 1
Step 4: Expand fractions to bring them to the common denominator (LCM) : 5 / 6 = (2 * 5) / (2 * 6) = 10 / 12
11 / 12 = (1 * 11) / (1 * 12) = 11 / 12
