The lowest common denominator is a shared multiple of both factors, in this case 4 and 8. Multiples of 4 are: 4, 8, 12, 16, 20... Multiples of 8 are 8, 16, 24, 32... The lowest common multiple is 8. The next step is to convert 3/4 to the common denominator. This is done by multiplying the fraction by an equivalent of 1 in this case 2/2. So...
2/2 X 3/4 = 6/8.
