This is actually fairly simple, so you shouldn't worry too much about it. In this case, finding the lowest common denominator is easy, because its 100. The only fraction you would need to change is 7/10, and you would multiple it by 10 to match the other fraction.

7/10 becomes 70/100

70/100 - 44/100 = 26/100
