Answer: no
Step-by-step explanation:
Negative numbers can't have real number square roots, but negative numbers can have real number cube roots
Answer:
The correct answer is: 360.
Explanation:
First we can express 120 as follows:
2 * 2 * 2 * 3 * 5 = 120
You can get the above multiples as follows:
120/2 = 60
60/2 =30
30/2 = 15
15/3 = 5 (Since 15 cannot be divisible by 2, so we move to the next number)
5/5 = 1
Take all the terms in the denominator for 120, you would get: 2 * 2 * 2 * 3 * 5 --- (1)
Second we can express 360 as follows:
360/2 = 180
180/2 = 90
90/2 =45
45/3 = 15 (Since 45 cannot be divisible by 2, so we move to the next number)
15/3 = 5
5/5 = 1
Take all the terms in the denominator for 360, you would get: 2 * 2 * 2 * 3 * 3 * 5 --- (2)
Now in (1) and (2) consider the common terms once and multiple that with the remaining:
2*2*2*3*5 = Common between the two
3 = Remaining
Hence (2*2*2*3*5) * (3) = 360 = LCM (answer)
