Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given two expressions and
Now we need to find out least common multiple of these two expressions.
First we need to find out what is common factor of both expressions. and
Least common multiple means find the expression which can be divided by both expressions.
15 and 6 both goes into 30
so 30 is part of LCM (least common multiple )
Now pickup the highest exponent of each variable.
So we get
Hence required least common multiple is
