Find LCM of p {}^(2) - pq \: and \: pq \: - q {}^(2) ​

Question

Find LCM of


`p {}^(2) - pq \: and \: pq \: - q {}^(2)`




​

Answer 1

Answer: LCM = pq(p - q) = p²q - pq²

Explanation:

p² - pq pq - q²

∧ ∧

p (p - q) q (p - q)

p² - pq: p · (p - q)

pq - q²: q · (p - q)

GCF: (p - q)

LCM: p · q · (p - q)
