you are correct that LCM of fractions = (LCM of numerators)/(HCF of denominators)
Now lets write the given numbers as fractions:
66.6666... (recurring) = 66 2/3 = 200/3
50 = 50/1
so LCM = (LCM of 50 & 200)/(HCF of 3 & 1) = 200/1 = 200
I think you are probably shortening the recurring decimal 66.6666... to 66.66 and hence this mismatch
Thanks! You made it look simple and I understood my mistake here. I was considering it to be non-recurring decimal places and the dividing the whole
