Now look at the variable part. Let's look at x first. x, x^2, x x^2 is a multiple of itself, x^2, and also a multiple of x, so for x, you need x^2 in the LCD. Now look at y. y, y, y^4 y^4 is a multiple of itself and a multiple of y, so for y you need y^4 in the LCD. Now put together what you need for the number part, for x and for y, and there is your LCD.
