Explain the process of finding the LCM of two numbers using prime factorization
Step 1: Find the prime factorization of both numbers
8(2 x 2 x 2) 12(3 x 2 x 2)
Step 2 Stack like terms on top of each other and non-like terms by themselves
8(2 x 2 x 2)
12(2 x 2 x 3)
LCM(2 x 2 x 2 x 3)
Step 3: Multiply the non-like terms to find the LCM
LCM(2 x 2 x 2 x 3) = 24
72 - (2 + 8 · 4)
