Answer:  

\frac{(L x M)}{6}

Step-by-step explanation:  

The greatest common factor is the greatest number that will divide two values. We have two values L and M. Each has numbers which multiply together to give the number. The highest value or most in common they share is 6. This is the GCF.

The least common multiple is the smallest positive number which is a multiple of the two. This means both L and M divide into it evenly.

We know L x M is a multiple because L and M will be factors of it. But we don't know its the least.

As an example if L= 42 and M = 60, they have GCF 6. We can multiply them to find a multiple 42 x 60 = 2520 but we don't know this is the smallest or least multiple we can find. If we divide by the GCF, 2520/6=420. Interestingly, 42 x 10 =420 and 60 x 7 =420. This means 420 is the least common multiple.  

We can multiply (L x M) and then divide by the GCF of L & M to find the least common multiple.

\frac{(L x M)}{6}

Each square on Olivia's chessboard is 11 square centimeters. A chessboard has 8 square on each side. To the nearest tenth, what
prisoha [69]
The chessboard is about 26.4 centimeters long. to find the answer you need to know the length of one side of a square, which is about 3.3 centimeters, because the area is 11, so the square root of 11 is about 3.3 centimeters. there are 8 squares, so you have to multiply 8 times 3.3 which equals 26.4.

In the diagram of circle K, tangents are drawn from point A to points B and C on the circle. If arc mBC = 96, then what is the m
rjkz [21]

Answer:

∠A = 84°

Step-by-step explanation:

Since AB and AC are tangent to the circle, ∠ABK = 90° and ∠ACK = 90°.

Angles of a quadrilateral add up to 360°, so:

∠A + 90° + 90° + 96° = 360°

∠A = 84°
