Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
List all prime factors for each number.
Prime Factorization of 6 is:
2 x 3 => 21 x 31
Prime Factorization of 8 is:
2 x 2 x 2 => 23
Prime Factorization of 15 is:
3 x 5 => 31 x 51
Prime Factorization of 21 is:
3 x 7 => 31 x 71
For each prime factor, find where it occurs most often as a factor and write it that many times in a new list.
The new superset list is
2, 2, 2, 3, 5, 7
Multiply these factors together to find the LCM.
LCM = 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 x 7 = 840
In exponential form:
LCM = 23 x 31 x 51 x 71 = 840
LCM = 840
Therefore,
LCM(6, 8, 15, 21) = 840
