97/100, 7/8 , 19/20, 8/10, 9/10

Well. since 10 and 20 both divide 100....we should focus on 100 and 8

100 factors as 22 x 52

And 8 factors as 23

So.......picking each ddifferent factor that has the greatest exponent on it, we have

23 x 52  =  8 x 25  = 200

And that's the (lowest) common denominator
