    1. Straight to the point. 2. Easy to understand and implement. Freaking BRILLIANT!! Thanks a million. Wish I had seen this before watching countless other (long, boring) methods.

    For Pete's sake this is brilliant video-filming technique: put a window between yourself and the camera. The camera records in a mirrored view. Flip the clip horizontally and that's the waaaaayyy the news goes.

    multiples of 12 : 12, 24, 36, 48, 60
    multiples of 30 : 30, 60
    LCM is 60 (this is what i call fast) i think finding the multiples is much easier than finding the common factors.

    Some things are worth reviewing back, thanks a lot for the quick refresh,Ma'am. I almost lost myself earlier on my seatwork >.<
    My technique is to just keep adding the Base Denominator until both sides reaches equal.
    12 - 24 36 48 60
    30 - 60
    And we got 60 as our LCM.

    This is a really great way of explaining how to find the LCD - however.. I am helping my son (4th grader) with Ordering Fractions and this one is a bit longer to sort.
    4/9,2/6,15/21,7/12,9/18
    I certainly can use a Multiplication Chart and find that 252 is the LCD but I don’t know how to lay this out as it’s been done in this video.

    • @necrolord1920
      @necrolord1920 7 лет назад +2

      If you know without a doubt that the largest number is prime, then the LCM would be the two numbers multiplied together, no matter what number the smaller number is.
      If you know the smaller number is prime, you just have to see if the bigger number is divisible by it, if it is, the LCM is the bigger number, if it isn't, the LCM is the two numbers multiplied together again.
      Therefore, prime numbers can actually make it a lot easier if you know they are prime with 100% certainty.

    • @demobrian
      @demobrian 10 лет назад

      The number needs to work with both numbers. For example, 7 and 28, both of these numbers can be divided by 7. So, you use 7 and write out the answers under the upside down division sign and write the 7 to the side.
