Order the steps involved in using common denominators to order a list of fractions.

Step 1. Find the least common denominators. Given a set of fractions with unlike denominators, find the least common denominators shared by the fractions.


\begin{gathered} E\mathrm{}g\text{ }(1)/(3)\text{ + }(1)/(4) \\ \text{The least common denominator will be 3 x 4} \\ =\text{ 12} \\ \text{Hence, the least common denominator is 12} \end{gathered}

Step 2. Determine the equivalent fractions sharing the lowest common Denominators.
