so it's 2 separate questions-2 fractions?

OpenStudy (jhannybean):

\[\large \frac{5}{6}x^7y^4, \frac{5}{3}x^6y^3\] in the fraction, you have a common multiple in the denominator, 3 is a multiple of 6, and since we could multiply (5/3) with (1/2) then the LCD for that part would be (5/6) For the x's, you could pull out an x^6 since adding another x to x^6 would give you x^7, hence that is another LCD. For the y's, our LCD would be y^3 because toget to y^4 we would have to add anotehr y to y^3. Altogether we would have \[\large \frac56x^6y^3\]
