Denominator Decimator 

1: A mythical figure whom possesses math skills of a much higher level than that of an average mortal man. (Believed by some to have the ability to solve complex quadratic equations with minimal expenditure of time and/or physical exertion.)

2: One whom has the ability to go medieval on that seemingly unsolvable and obscure "The train left the station" problem's ass.

"Im no denominator decimator, but 31 divided by 2 doesn't exactly perplex me."

Lowest Common Denominator

A particular type of obnoxious person one encounters in extremely large groups, or where everybody is universally included. Because there are so many people, there is a significantly higher probability of idiotic people.

Facebook comment sections are terrible. It's just giving voice to the lowest common denominator.

Dumbest Common Denominator 

The most logically-challenged portion of the general population for which the most obvious warnings, posts, signs and instructions must be written or designed to avoid catastrophe.

On the lid of the coffee cup: Contents may be hot.
On a package of kitchen knives: Caution! Items are sharp.
On a trash bag: Do not place over head.
At a railroad crossing: No parking.
On a clothes dryer: Do not place children or animals inside.

"This is the dumbest sign I've ever seen. Do they think I'm a complete moron?"

"Dude. Gotta plan for the Dumbest Common Denominator."

Slowest Common Denominator

The kid in class who slows down the rest by having to get every last thing repeated to him/her 8 times before understanding it.

Teacher 1) I hear you got Tommy and Linda in English class. I had them last year. They're some really bright kids.

Teacher 2) Yeah, but I feel horrible. It's damn near Christmas and we still haven't finished basic sentence structure because Kyle still doesn't understand subject-verb agreement and he asks me 2 dozen questions per class that I've already answered.

Teacher 1) That's always so unfortunate, when the brightest in the bunch are put in the same classes as the Slowest Common Denominator.

Teacher 2) Yeah. I wish there was room in the budget to have more advanced classes.
