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.

How do you convert the percent to a fraction in simplest terms?
1. Write the number as a fraction of 100, eg 35% = 35/100 2. Find any common factors from top and bottom (in this case 5) and divide both). In this case it would give 7/20.
Can a negative fraction be an integer?
Yes. eg: a fraction -4/2 = -2 an integer
How do you convert a fraction to an improper fraction?
WE just have to check if the numerator is greater than the denominator. Eg: 8/3 is an improper fraction. Every mixed fraction is an improper fraction.
What is the LCM of two that have no common factors greater than 1?
If there is no common factor greater than 1, then the lcm of those numbers is the product of those numbers. eg hcf(5, 7) = 1 → lcm(5, 7) = 5 x 7 = 35 eg hcf(4, 9) = 1 → lcm(4, 9) = 4 x 9 = 36
What fraction is equivalent to 1 6 over 10?
If you are meaning 1 and 6/10 a way to put it all as a fraction is converting 1 into a fraction over the denominator eg. 1=10/10 Then add to the other fraction eg. 10/10 + 6/10 = 16/10
