Yes, that works. It'll be easy to compare fractions then.
For 5, it would just be 1 X 5 --> 1^1 * 5^1...
Note, for 3,5,7
you would also have to add 3^0 and 7^0 to the list of 1^1 * 5^1 * ..... * .....
So can I write #2 and #3?
The 5^0 acts as a 1 as well as a way to differentiate the highest exponents for each number. If you have put all the possible different numbers, then it'll be easier to see which ones have the highest exponent.
What are the prime factors for 5 and the odd numbers?
What is the 5^0 supposed to mean?
First, find all prime factors. Then, find the highest exponent of each number and multiply all the numbers with the highest exponent. Basically, you will have 1 of each number.
Thank you! Now I don't have to do the old way!
Yes, since they are equal, you would "mentally" check off 5/8. You can just draw arrows leading to 5/8 and placing a bubbled circle if you want.
DS, I highly suggest you look at this website:http://www.mathmix.com/content/Subjects/Numbers/Factoring_Numbers/Least_Common_Multiple
Here's an example:
I have a lot of homework because I am in a gifted class.
So, do I put the thing that says: #3 and #2? I am not sure if I put it below the 5/8. Use the 2nd picture I posted here.
For question 2 and 3, I got the same answer. Do I write it in the 5/8 place as:
5/8 (beside the 5/8 do I put this?)
#2 and #3
I'll check the other question out.
Also, remember that 2/8 = 1/4, 6/8 = 3/4.
So if I keep doing that, it's is going to look like a mees!
Can you help me on a few on my other post please?

Thank you AzizHusain. You should be a moderator, you know.
Sure, one sec.
Ok sorry, but can you show me an exampl please?
The circle with the marked points is already given to you. All you have to do is pretend it's a clock and add the fractions by using the marked points as references.

The thing that don't understand is how to make it all in a circle. Thats what I need help with.
Sorry to make you work a lot, but I still am confused. Sorry.
