First find the LCM of the numbers 5, 19 and 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

would it be 190?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

right!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now find the greatest exponents of x and y in the three fractions' denominators

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im confused with this step,would it be 4 and 2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Right! It is 4 and 2 for x and y respectively. Combine the LCM of numbers and the x and y with their greatest exponents in one single expression.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it would be 109^4?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

190 times x^4 times y^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohhh okay
