Answer:

15.

Explanation:

LCD: THE SMALLEST MULTIPLE TWO OR MORE DENOMINATORS HAVE IN COMMON.

An easy way to find the least common denominator (LCD), is by listing the multiples of the denominators and circling the smallest multiple that both denominators have in common.

SOLVE:


5: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40.


15, 15, 30, 45, 60, 75, 90, 105, 120.

The smallest multiply both numbers have in common is 15.

I, Therefore, believe the LCD for 3/5 and 2/5 is 15.
