In this question, we want to compare several numbers with different denominators and find out which number is the least. To compare this number, we have to change the denominator into the same number by finding the least common multiple (LCM) of the 4 numbers. The factor of each number will be:
3= 3 ^1
5= 5^1
8= 2 * 2 * 2 = 2^3
2= 2^1
We can find the LCM by multiplying a higher exponent of each prime number. The LCM will be:3^1 * 5^1 * 2^3 = 120
Each number will be:
Tiger= 2/3 * 40/40= 80/120
Redbird = 4/5 * 24/24= 96/120
Bulldogs = 3/8 * 15/15 = 45/120
Titans = 1/2 * 60/60 = 60/120
As you can see, the team with the lowest chance to play is Bulldogs = 45/120
Answer:
yes it is possible to get a common denominator grater than 12 and still get the right answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is because the numerator is always directly corelated to de denominator therefore the fraction wouldn't change because when simplified it is the same fraction as it would be with 12 as the denominator
