Question 1:
think about which one Arnold has already cut the most.... he cut the green string into 6 equal size lengths. the blue he cut into 2 and the red he cut into 3 and both of those can go into 6 so six is the answer.
Question2:
same concept as question one. You're learning the basics to fractions, or division. what is the largest amount a gronola bar is cut into..... 12 pieces. But 8 doesn't divide into 12 does it so what can 12 multiply into that 8 does also..... 12x2=24 and 8x3=24 also. 4x6=24 too therefore the smallest number of equal size pieces each tray can have is 24 pieces.
Question 3:
least common denominator means the bottom number in each fraction is multiplied into the smallest number all the bottom numbers can equal. 1/2, 3/5, and 9/15... what number can 2, 5, and 15 all be multiplied into. look at the biggest number 15 it is not divisable by 2 so multiply it by 2 15x2=30. 30 is divisable by 2 and by 5 so it is the least common denominator. so double it 30x2=60.

Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
The least common denominator of 3, 5, and 15 is equal to the least number of equal-sized lengths each color string could have.
List the nonzero multiples of each number.
3: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21...
Step 2:
5: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35...
Step 3 out of 3:
15: 15,
30
, 45, 60...
The least common denominator is
15
So everyone please stop saying 6, 6 is incorrect.
The Answer is 15
