Least Common Denominator of 8 and 33 (LCD of 8 and 33)

Least Common Denominator (LCD) of 8 and 33

The Least Common Denominator of 8 and 33, also known as the Lowest Common Denominator of 8 and 33, is useful if you need to add, subtract, or compare two fractions with the denominators of 8 and 33.

The fractions with 8 and 33 denominators will look like this:

		X
		8

		Y
		33

The Least Common Denominator of 8 and 33 is 264.

You need to multiply 8 by 33 and 33 by 8 to make them both 264. Furthermore, you need to multiply the numerators by the same amounts to keep the fraction values the same.

Therefore, you have to make the following calculations so the fractions keep the same values and get the same denominator:

		X x 33
		8 x 33

		Y x 8
		33 x 8

Which gives you the following two new fractions that you can add, subtract and compare:

		33X
		264

		8Y
		264

You can substitute X and Y with the numerators of your fractions with 8 and 33 denominators. This way you can add, subtract and compare your fractions correctly.
