Answer
LCM of 48 and 99 is
1,584
First common multiples: 1,584; 3,168; 4,752; …
1,584 is divisible by both: 1,584 ÷ 48 = 33; 1,584 ÷ 99 = 16 — and 33 and 16 share no factor but 1, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/48 by 33 and of y/99 by 16.
48 = 24 × 3
99 = 32 × 11
| Prime | 48 | 99 | Highest power |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 | 24 | — | 24 |
| 3 | 3 | 32 | 32 |
| 11 | — | 11 | 11 |
— = power 0: the prime is not a factor of this number; the LCM takes it from the number that has it.
LCM = 24 × 32 × 11 = 1,584
