Example: 1/30 and 1/42
Their LCD is 210.
Multiply each one by whatever it takes to make 210 in the denominator.
30 x 7 = 210
42 x 5 = 210
1/30 x 7/7 = 7/210
1/42 x 5/5 = 5/210

Factor them.
2 x 3 x 5 = 30
2 x 3 x 7 = 42
Combine the factors, eliminating duplicates.
2 x 3 x 5 x 7 = 210, the LCD

What do you mean "take out"? To find the LCD for several fractions look only at the denominators and find the lowest number or algebraic expression that evenly divides into all of them.
