Question

a,b being prime numbers, then what will be the LCM of (p,q). If two positive integers p and a
can be expressed as;
p = ab2 and q = a3b​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that, p = ab2 = a × b × b

and q = a3b = a × a × a × b

∴ LCM of p and q = LCM (ab2,a3b) = a × b × b × a × a = a3b2
