Lesson 5-6 Pages 226-230 Least Common Multiple Lesson Check 5-5
What you will learn! • How to find the LCM of two or more numbers. • How to find the LCD of two or more fractions.
What you really need to know! The least common multiple (LCM) is the least nonzero number that is a multiple of the given numbers.
What you really need to know! The least common denominator (LCD) of two or more fractions is the LCM of the denominators.
Example: Find the LCM of 8 and 18. 8 = 2 2 2 18 = 2 3 3 LCM = 2 2 2 3 3 = 72
Example 1: Find the LCM of 24 and 18. 23 • 32 = 72
Example 2: Find the LCM of 168 and 180. 23 • 32 • 5 • 7 = 2,520
Example 3: Find the LCM of 12x2y2 and 6y3 2•2•3•x•x•y•y•y=12x2y3
Example 4: Find the LCD of 7/8 and 13/20 : 2•2•2•5=40
Example 5: Find the LCD of 9/36a2b and 16/27ab2 : 2•2•3•3•3•a•a•b•b = 108a2b2
Example 6: Replace the ? with <, >, or =.
