O get the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 15 and 8 we need to factor each value first and then we choose all the factors which appear in any column and multiply them:
<span><span>15: 35</span><span>8: 222 </span><span>LCM: 22235</span></span>
<span>The Least Common Multiple (LCM) is: 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 = 120</span>
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:
See explanation.
(Before continuing reading, I took the base to be 3. Please tell me if you didn't want the base to be 3.)
Step-by-step explanation:
I assume 3 is suppose to be the base. Let's list some values that can be written as 3 to some integer.
3^0=1
3^1=3
3^2=9
3^3=27
3^4=81
3^5=243
......
I could have also did negative integer powers, but this is all I really need to convince you that log_3(28) is between 3 and 4.
log_3(28) means the value x such that 3^x=28.
Since 28 is between 27 and 81 in my list above, that means 3^x is between 3^3 and 3^4. This means that x is a value between 3 and 4.
Answer: A number with the same absolute value of 23 is -23.
Explanation: The absolute value of a number is how far it is from zero, and the absolute value of a number is always positive, unless the number is 0, in which case the absolute value is neutral, and the absolute value is 0.
Examples: 6 is 6 away from zero, so the absolute value of 6 is 6.
−6 is 6 away from zero, so the absolute value of −6 is 6.
