Best Answer

Take the denominators and factor them into prime numbers. The LCM is the product of the prime numbers that were used the most. Here is an example.

1/30 and 1/24

30=2x3x5

24=2x2x2x3

LCM=2x2x2x3x5=120

Use that as the common denominator and multiply the numerator by the amount needed to multiply the denominator by to get the LCM.
