LEAST COMMON MULTIPLE 8.12 Finding the LCM (smallest number divisible by a set of given numbers) • Find the LCM of 8, 12 • Find the LCM of 6, 5, 4 LCM of monomials • The least common factor of a monomial will be the LCM of the coefficients, multiplied by the LCM of the variables. • To find the LCM of the variables take the HIGHEST POWER of each!! Examples • Find the LCM: • 14𝑥 2 𝑦, 21𝑥𝑦 3 6𝑏 3 , 9𝑎2 𝑏, 30𝑎4 Homework • LCM Practice Sheet • Rational Function Quiz
