What is the lowest common denominator if 4 and 8?

The lowest common denominator of any two or more whole numbers, such as 4 and 8, will always be one (1) because 'common denominator' refers to the denominators of two or more fractions or mixed numbers, not whole numbers. So, a set of whole numbers (x,x) would have to be converted to their fraction equivalents, i.e., x/1, which will always yield a denominator of 1.
