Answer:

42

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the Least Common Multiple (that isn't 0) between 6 and 7. To do this, list each number's multiples.

Multiples of 6: 0, 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54

Multiples of 7: 0, 7, 14, 21, 28, 35, 42, 49, 56, 63

Their LCM is 42. Now, we multiply the fractions so the denominators are both 42. !You have to multiply <u>both</u> the numerator and denominator by the same number! For 6, 6*7 is 42, so you multiply both 6 and 5 by 7. When you do this, you get 35/42. For 7, 7*6 is 42, so you have to multiply both 7 and 2 by 6. When you do this, you get 12/42. The new problem is 35/42-12/42.

Hope this helps!

DiKsa [7]

Given the expression below:

\large \boxed{16 {c}^{4}  {p}^{2}  + 20c {p}^{3} }

We can factor out c-term, p² and 4 (from 16 and 20)

\large{4c {p}^{2} (4 {c}^{3}  + 5p)}

Answer

  • 4cp²(4c³+5p)
