Answer
LCM of 12 and 29 is
348
First common multiples: 348; 696; 1,044; …
348 is divisible by both: 348 ÷ 12 = 29, 348 ÷ 29 = 12 — and 29 and 12 share no factor but 1, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/12 by 29 and of y/29 by 12.
12 and 29 are coprime (GCF = 1), so their LCM is simply the product: 12 × 29 = 348.

29 — prime
| Prime | 12 | 29 | Highest power |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 | 22 | — | 22 |
| 3 | 3 | — | 3 |
| 29 | — | 29 | 29 |
— = power 0: the prime is not a factor of this number; the LCM takes it from the number that has it.
LCM = 22 × 3 × 29 = 348
