Whats the error? jonah says a common denominator for 3/4 and 2/5 is 9.what is jonahs error?

In order to get the common denominator when adding fractions or subtracting fractions, you have to make sure  that the denominator of the two items are divisible by each other. In this case, 9 is not divisible by any of the given denominators which is 4 and 5. So in this case, the common denominator will have to be 20. 5 x 4 will equal to 20 and you will also multiply 3 x 5 to get the new numerator. After that, you will multiply 2 x 4 to get the new numerator of the other fraction. The new fractions will be 15/20 and 8/20. From there, you can add or subtract

10,000 hope i ! : )

Think of it as five or above give it a shove. change the 5 or above to the right to a zero and add one to the number on the left.
