Step-by-step solution

To find the least common multiple (LCM) of the denominators 6,8,106, 8, 10, we need to consider each prime factor of these numbers at their highest power:

  • 6=2×36 = 2 \times 3

  • 8=238 = 2^3

  • 10=2×510 = 2 \times 5

Therefore, the LCM is:

23×3×5=1202^3 \times 3 \times 5 = 120

So, the least common multiple of 6,8,106, 8, 10 is 120120.
