The LCD (Least common denominator) is 9,

For the denominators (3, 9) the least common multiple (LCM) is 9.

Therefore, the least common denominator (LCD) is 9.


Hope This Helps :D

the LCD of the two is 9 what you do is this so 1/3,2/9 is simple its 1/3 2/3 1 then lets try the 2/9 2/9 4/9 6/9 and keep doing that until they both reach the SAME number.
