The lowest (or least) common denominator also written as LCD is the smallest of all the possible common denominators, where t<span>he </span>denominator<span> is the bottom number in a fraction.
</span>We should find the lowest common denominator of (p+3)/(p^2+7p+10) and <span>(p+5)/(p^2+5p+6).
</span><span>p^2+7p+10 can be written as a product: (p+5)(p+2)
</span>p^2+5p+6 <span>can be written as a product: (p+3)(p+2)
</span>So, we should find the LCD for (p+5)(p+2) and (p+3)(p+2). The smallest possible number that can be divided with both of them is:<span>(p + 5)(p + 2)(p + 3)
Solution C.</span>
25 would be your final answer.
Answer:
The 3 option
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 75
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
⇒ 
⇒ 
⇒ 
Now compare the like bases:
⇒ A = 2D + 12
⇒ B = 24
⇒ D = 13
Next, let's solve for A:
A = 2D + 12
= 2(13) + 12
= 26 + 12
= 38
LAST STEP: Find the sum of A, B, and D
S = A + B + D
= 38 + 24 + 13
= 75
