LCM of 60 and 160 is
480
First common multiples: 480; 960; 1,440; …
480 is divisible by both: 480 ÷ 60 = 8, 480 ÷ 160 = 3 — and 8 and 3 share no factor but 1, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/60 by 8 and of y/160 by 3.

|---|---|---|---|
| 2 | 22 | 25 | 25 |
| 3 | 3 | — | 3 |
| 5 | 5 | 5 | 5 |
— = power 0: the prime is not a factor of this number; the LCM takes it from the number that has it.
