Question

Find the least common denominator for these two rational expressions,

Answer 1

Answer:

(y + 2)²(y + 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor the denominators of both fractions

y² + 4y + 4 = (y + 2)²

y² + 6y + 8 = (y + 2)(y + 4)

The least common denominator is (y + 2)²(y + 4)

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y²+4y+4=(y+2)² =(y+2)(y+2)

y²+6y+8 = (y+2)(y+4)

the least common denominator for these

two rational expressions is : (y+2)²(y+4)
