Answer:
396
Step-by-step explanation:
First, find the prime factorization of each number.
44 = 2^2 * 11
36 = 2^2 * 3^2
For the LCM, you need non-common factors and common factors with the larger exponent. Then you multiply together all the factors you use.
2 is a common factor. Both numbers have 2^2, so choose 2^2.
3 is not common. Use 3^2.
11 is not common. Use 11.
LCM = 2^2 * 3^2 * 11 = 396
The strategy I don't, but the answer is 7,141
The Answer is -3/2
Below is how I got that answer
(-12) / 6+2
-12/ 8 (Simplify the problem by adding 6 and 2, remove the parenthesis).
-3/2 (Simplify -12/8 by dividing it by 4)
