Answer
LCM of 36 and 49 is
1,764
First common multiples: 1,764; 3,528; 5,292; …
1,764 is divisible by both: 1,764 ÷ 36 = 49; 1,764 ÷ 49 = 36 — and 49 and 36 share no factor but 1, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/36 by 49 and of y/49 by 36.
36 and 49 are coprime (GCF = 1), so their LCM is simply the product: 36 × 49 = 1,764.
36 = 22 × 32
49 = 72

|---|---|---|---|
| 2 | 22 | — | 22 |
| 3 | 32 | — | 32 |
| 7 | — | 72 | 72 |
— = power 0: the prime is not a factor of this number; the LCM takes it from the number that has it.
LCM = 22 × 32 × 72 = 1,764
