Answer:
i have the answer to this question
What is the least perfect square number which is divisible by each of numbers 8, 12, 15, and 20?
Step-by-step explanation:
8=23
12=22∗3
15=3∗5
20=22∗5
So choosing the maximum of all the prime exponents that exist in the numbers above, we have,
LCM = 23∗3∗5=120
Now, I will use an approach which others have not used to get to the least perfect square.
120 = 23∗3∗5
Now in a perfect square, ALWAYS, exponent of each prime is always even.
So, we will change the exponent of 2 from 3 to 4.
We will change the exponent of 3 from 1 to 2.
We will change the exponent of 5 from 1 to 2.
Finally we have the number 24∗32∗52=3600.
So, required answer is 3600.
Okay angel from now we are friends....
