Question

The L.C.M. of the fractions $\frac{5}{16},\frac{15}{24}$ and $\frac{25}{8}$ is

• A. $\frac{5}{48}$
• B. $\frac{5}{8}$
• C. $\frac{75}{48}$
• D. $\frac{75}{8}$

Answer 1

The correct option is D $\frac{75}{8}$

$LCMoffraction$ $=$ $\frac{LCMofnumerator}{HCFofdenominator}$

The given fractions are : $5/16,15/24,25/8$
LCM of $5,15,25$ is $75$
HCF of $16,24,8$ is $8$
Hence, the answer is $75/8$
