Answer:

common denominator is ab.

Explanation:

Given :
(1)/(a) +(1)/(b) ; complex fraction
((1)/(a) - (1)/(b))/((1)/(a)+(1)/(b)).

To find : What is the common denominator.

Solution : We have given that
((1)/(a) - (1)/(b))/((1)/(a)+(1)/(b)).

For this, we subtract fractions in the numerator and the sum of fractions in the denominator.


((b-a)/(ab))/((b+a)/(ab)).

We observe that the common denominator is given by the product: ab

Therefore, common denominator is ab.
