What is the lCM For 6x; 3

Step-by-step explanation

Since 6x, 3 contains numbers and variables, two steps are needed to find the MCM. Find the MCM for the numerical part 6.3, then find the MCM for the variable part x1

.

The MCM is the smallest number by which all numbers are divided without leaving a remainder.

1. List the prime factors of each number.

2. Multiply each factor the greatest number of times that occurs in any of the numbers. 6 has factors of 2 and 3.2⋅3 Since 3 does not have divisors other than 1 and 33 is a prime number

The least common multiple MCM of 6.3 is the result of multiplying all the prime factors the greatest number of times they appear in each term. 2⋅3 Multiply 2 by 3.6 The factor for x1 is the same
