Greatest Common Divisor and Least Common Multiple: (Fractions with denominators larger than 16 are seldom found in business. Fractions with denominators to 64 are often found in machine shops as units of measure, but there is no call to calculate with these fractions except in the office of the expert. Those with large denominators are expressed in the decimal form. The co...
