And that is like the smallest, most basic fractional unit between two fractions -- the LCD.
How is that so difficult to grasp?
I'm perfectly aware it's a figure of speech. I'm so glad I was able to get one or two redwood rednecks mad about this.
The denominator is just the bottom part of a fraction. It's not a "fractional unit" as you say. I even gave an example above where the LCD was 12. 12 is a bigger number than 1/3 pr 1/4. Twelve. 12 is the LCD. Maybe if I use the words Y'all and such you'd understand me better.
