For this case, we have that by definition, the LCM of two or more natural numbers, is the smallest natural number that is a common multiple of all of them.

Then the LCM of 15 and 6 is the smallest positive integer that divides the numbers 15 and 6 without leaving a residue.

Multiples of each number:

15: 15,30,45 ...

6: 6,12,18,24,30

So, the LCM is
30w ^ 2

Answer:


30w ^ 2
