1. Find the least common denominator (LCD) of $$6$$ and $$4$$.  
   - The multiples of $$6$$ are: $$6, 12, 18, \dots$$  
   - The multiples of $$4$$ are: $$4, 8, 12, \dots$$  
   - The smallest common multiple is $$12$$.

2. Write $$\frac{5}{6}$$ with the denominator $$12$$:  
   - Multiply the numerator and denominator by $$2$$ (since $$6 	imes 2 = 12$$).  
   - $$\frac{5}{6} = \frac{5 	imes 2}{6 	imes 2} = \frac{10}{12}$$.

3. Write $$\frac{3}{4}$$ with the denominator $$12$$:  
   - Multiply the numerator and denominator by $$3$$ (since $$4 	imes 3 = 12$$).  
   - $$\frac{3}{4} = \frac{3 	imes 3}{4 	imes 3} = \frac{9}{12}$$.

Thus, the pair of fractions with a common denominator is $$\frac{10}{12}$$ and $$\frac{9}{12}$$.
To compare $$\frac{5}{6}$$ and $$\frac{3}{4}$$, find a common denominator, which is $$12$$. $$\frac{5}{6} = \frac{10}{12}$$ and $$\frac{3}{4} = \frac{9}{12}$$.
