    Question

    Find LCM of ​38,26,47\frac{3}{8},\frac{2}{6},\frac{4}{7}

    A.

    1186\frac{1}{186}

    B.

    16

    C.

    1168\frac{1}{168}

    D.

    12

    Correct option is D

    Concept/Formula Used:

    The LCM of fractions is calculated using the formula:

    LCM of Fractions=LCM of NumeratorsHCF of Denominators\text{LCM of Fractions} = \frac{\text{LCM of Numerators}}{\text{HCF of Denominators}}​​

    Step 1: Identify the Numerators and Denominators:

    Given fractions: ​38,26,47 \frac{3}{8}, \frac{2}{6}, \frac{4}{7} ​​
    - Numerators: 3, 2, 4
    - Denominators: 8, 6, 7

    Step 2: Calculate LCM of Numerators:

    The LCM of 3, 2, and 4 is:

    LCM of (3, 2, 4) = 12

    Step 3: Calculate HCF of Denominators:

    The HCF of 8, 6, and 7 is:

    HCF(8, 6, 7) = 1  (as 8, 6, and 7 are co-prime).}

    Step 4: Calculate LCM of Fractions:

    Using the formula:

    LCM of Fractions=LCM of NumeratorsHCF of Denominators\text{LCM of Fractions} = \frac{\text{LCM of Numerators}}{\text{HCF of Denominators}}​​

    Substitute the values:

    LCM of Fractions=121=12\text{LCM of Fractions} = \frac{12}{1} = 12​​

    Correct Answer:

    (D) 12
