We take each number as x = 2x 3x 4x
(2x)³+(3x)³+(4x)³=33957
8x³+27x³+64x³=33957
99x³=33957
x³=33957÷99
=∛343
x=7
2x=2×7=14
3x=3×7=21
4x=4×7=28
=the three numbers are 14,21,28

Find the LCD for the following fractions: , 25x3 60x3 25x5 60x5

zimovet [89]

Answer:

We need to find the lowest common divisor which is the smallest possible number that is dividable by ALL numbers.

We have the following numbers:

$\frac{25}{3}$

$\frac{60}{3}$

$\frac{25}{5}$

$\frac{60}{5}$

For the denominators (3, 3, 5, 5) the least common multiple (LCM) is 15.

LCM(3, 3, 5, 5) . Therefore, the least common denominator (LCD) is 15.

Rewriting the original inputs as equivalent fractions with the LCD:

125/15, 300/15, 75/15, 180/15
