1/4 = 15/60

1/5 = 12/60

1/6 = 10/60

1/10 = 6/60

1/15 = 4/60

How to write the given expression in same denominator

To write the numbers 1/3 1/4 1/5 1/6 1/10 1/15 in same denominator, the LCM lowest common multiple of the denominators are calculated first

The Lcm of 3, 4 , 5, 6, 10, and 15 is = 60

The numerators are calculated by dividing the lcm with the original  denominator. then the lcm turns the new denominator

1/3 ⇒ (60 ÷ 3)/60  = 20/60

1/4 ⇒ (60 ÷ 4)/60 = 15/60

1/5 ⇒ (60 ÷ 5)/60 = 12/60

1/6 ⇒ (60 ÷ 6)/60 = 10/60

1/10 ⇒ (60 ÷ 10)/60 = 6/60

1/15 ⇒ (60 ÷ 15)/60 = 4/60
