The LCM of 5 and 8 is 40, which in this problem would be the least common denominator.
LCM problems refer to whole numbers, not fractions.
one eighth of a three fourth
Four fifths times one and two thirds times one and one eighth = 1 1/2 or 1.5
two forty-fifths or one twenty-eighth
Expressed as a fraction, that would be two fifths of one twenty-eighth of a gram.
VES one fifth is equal to .200 while one eighth is equal to .125 therefore 2 fifths is equal to .400 while 2 eighths is equal to .250 .
2/5 x 1/8 = 2/40 = 1/20 one twentieth
no. obviously there are two one eighth to make one two eighth
Same as finding the LCM of 6, 5, 7: 2*3*5*7 = 210
there is five-fifths in one. ten-fifths in two, so there are five two-fifths in two.
one and two fifths :P
One fifth PLUS two fifths = 3 fifths
