Answer 1

Answer:

LCM(18,24) = 72

Step-by-step explanation:

18 = 21 × 32

Prime Factorization of 24

Prime factors of 24 are 2, 3. Prime factorization of 24 in exponential form is:

24 = 23 × 31

Now multiplying the highest exponent prime factors to calculate the LCM of 18 and 24.

LCM(18,24) = 23 × 32

LCM(18,24) = 72
