Answer:

  • least: 140
  • others: 280, 420

Step-by-step explanation:

It can work to start by factoring the numbers:

  20 = 2²·5

  28 = 2²·7

The LCM of 20 and 28 is 2²·5·7 = 140, the product of unique factors to their highest power. 140 is the least common denominator of the two fractions.

Any multiple of 140 will also be a value that can be used as a common denominator. Shown above are 2·140 = 280, and 3·140 = 420. The product of the given denominators, 20·28 = 560, is also another possible common denominator.
