Val

lowest common denominator
 
I know there is no lowest common denominator function but are there any ideas
on how i could get to that point using other functions? We were given the
hint that you could get there by using the greatest common denominator but I
haven't been able to figure it out. Yes this is a school assignment and yes
we were told to use each other, pros or anything else to figure it out.
