Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : 77 Given: The given fractions are \(2\frac{1}{3}\) and \(5\frac{1}{2}\) Concept Used: LCM of fraction = LCM of numerators/HCF of denominators Calculation: The given fractions are in a mixed fraction so first we need to convert it into proper fraction. Proper fraction of \(2\frac{1}{3}\) and \(5\frac{1}{2}\) are 7/3 and 11/2 ∴ LCM of numerator = LCM of (7, 11) = 77 And, HCF of denominator = HCF of (3, 2) = 1 Now, LCM of (7/3 and 11/2) = (LCM of (7, 11)/ (HCF of (3, 2) = 77/1 = 77 |
