LCM of the fractions (2/3), (8/15) and (4/27) =Â $$\frac{LCM\ of\ Numerators}{HCf\ of\ deno\min ators}$$
= $$\frac{LCM\ of\ \left(2,\ 8\ and\ 4\right)}{HCF\ of\ \left(3,\ 15\ and\ 27\right)}$$
=Â $$\frac{8}{3}$$
LCM of (2, 8 and 4)
2 = $$2\times1$$
8 = $$2\times2\times2\times1$$
4Â =Â $$2\times2\times1$$
So the LCM of these is 8.
HCF of (3, 15 and 27)
3 = $$3\times1$$
15 = $$5\times3\times1$$
27 =Â $$3\times3\times3\times1$$
So the HCF of these is 3.
