The answer is: False

Step-by-step explanation:

First we'll start with the 4, which is the denominator of 3/4.

4: 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24

Next we'll repeat the same process with 6, which is the denominator of 1/6

6: 6, 12, 18, 24

24 is NOT the least common demoninator. The least common denominator in the problem would be 12.
