metres can be cut from a ribbon of
Length 63 metres?

Answer 1

Problem & Workout :

step 1 Address input parameters & values.

Integers: 20 30 50

lcm (20, 30, 50) = ?

step 2 Arrange the group of numbers in the horizontal form with space or comma separated format

20, 30 and 50

step 3 Choose the divisor which divides each or most of the integers of in the group (20, 30 and 50), divide each integers separately and write down the quotient in the next line right under the respective integers. Bring down the integer to the next line if the integer is not divisible by the divisor. Repeat the same process until all the integers are brought to 1.

LCM of 20, 30 and 5010203050223531355115111step 4 Multiply the divisors to find the lcm of 20, 30 and 50

10 x 2 x 3 x 5 = 300

LCM(20, 30, 50) = 300

The least common multiple for three numbers 20, 30 and 50 is 300. How many pieces of length 1 3/4

metres can be cut from a ribbon of

Length 63 metres? Answer is 8 piece we cut
