Answer: The smallest valuest value for k is 10, such that LCM of k and 6 is 60.

Explanation:

We know that, LCM = Least common multiple.

For example : LACM of 12 and 60 is 60.

If LCM of k and 6 is 60.

i.e. the least common multiple of k and 6 is 60.

Since, 10 x 6 = 60.

The smallest valuest value for k should be 10, such that LCM of k and 6 is 60.

Hence, the smallest value of k is 10.
