What is the common denominator of 3/5, 7/8, and 5/6?

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

240 is one common denominator.

(Not asked for by problem but  least common denominator is 120)

Discussion:

A common denominator (one of many) is given by multiplying the denominators: 5, 8, and 6. That is 5*8*6 = 240 is a common denominator.

If the least common denominator is desired, then that is 5 * 8 * 3 = 120

(we use 3 as 6 = 2*3 but 2 is already accounted for in the factorization of 8)

Thank you,

MrB

step-by-step explanation:

consider an orange peel: if you want to try and lay it flat, you have to stretch it, we know exactly how things are being stretched or squashed at any given point. we have many different map projections because each has different patterns of some projections can even preserve certain features of the earth without

this is the formula: v = the value of investment at the end of the time period

p = the principal amount (the initial amount invested)

r = the annual interest rate

n = the annual frequency of compounding (how many times a year interest is added)

t = the number of years the money is invested
