Answer:


40y^4

Explanation:

To find the least common multiple (lcm) of a pair of numbers, we can multiple the numbers together and divide by the greatest common factor of those numbers. The greatest common factor (gcm) of
8y^3 and
10y^4 is
2y^3, so


lcm(8y^3, 10y^4)=(8y^3\cdot10y^4)/(2y^3) =4\cdot10y^4=40y^4
