The same as with two.
Example: 30, 42, 60
Factor them.
2 x 3 x 5 = 30
2 x 3 x 7 = 42
2 x 2 x 3 x 5 = 60
Combine the factors, eliminating duplicates.
2 x 2 x 3 x 5 x 7 = 420, the LCD

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?

I've made my fair share of mistakes, and if I can help you avoid a few, I'd sure like to try.

Say there's 2/3 and 1/2, it's called Least Common Denominator, so you need to look at the denominators which are 3 and 2.

Now list the multiples:

3: 1, 3, 6...

2: 1, 2, 4, 6...

As you can see both of them go into 6 the least amount of times because it's the one that they both can multiply.
