(21/25)(10/117)(27/14) multiply. give answer in lowest term. I am terrible at finding the LCD, is that where I need to start? or Multiply and then find simplest form?
all u gotta do is just put it in ur calculator..or r u supposed to do it by hand?
Just multiply them out, then reduce the answer (is what I'd do, at least)
21.10.27 --------- 25.117.14 3. 1 . 3 ------- = 6 / 65 5.13. 1
did you factor out the numbers?
i tried.... let me see if i can step thru that to check meself
21.10.27 --------- 25.117.14 21.2.27 --------- 5.117.14 3.2.27 ------- 5.117.2 3.2.9.3 ------- 5.9.13.2 3.3 ---- = 6/65 5.13
21.10.27 --------- 25.117.14 21.1.27 ------- 5.117.7 3.1.9 ----- 5.39.1 1.1.9 ----- 5.13.1 =9/65
