Answer
LCM of 17 and 24 is
408
First common multiples: 408; 816; 1,224; …
408 is divisible by both: 408 ÷ 17 = 24, 408 ÷ 24 = 17 — and 24 and 17 share no factor but 1, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/17 by 24 and of y/24 by 17.
17 and 24 are coprime (GCF = 1), so their LCM is simply the product: 17 × 24 = 408.

|---|---|---|---|
| 2 | — | 23 | 23 |
| 3 | — | 3 | 3 |
