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}

The true statements about the triangles RST and DEF are: (a), (d) and (e)

<h3>How to determine the true statements?</h3>

The statement ΔRST ≅ ΔDEF means that the triangles RST and DEF are congruent.

This above implies that:

  • The triangles can be mapped onto each other by rigid transformations such as reflection, translation and rotation
  • The transformation does not include dilation
  • Corresponding sides are congruent

The above means that the possible true statements are: (a), (d) and (e)
