Subtracting two rational expressions with unlike denominators

The video tutorial explains how to handle rational expressions by finding common denominators. It begins with an introduction to rational expressions and the necessity of common denominators for subtraction. The tutorial then covers simplifying and factoring expressions, followed by finding the least common multiple (LCM) for denominators. It demonstrates combining fractions using the LCM and concludes with the final simplification of the expression.

What is the importance of having common denominators when subtracting fractions?
