Answer:

It is clear that the multiplication of two values in Eq A is done to get the LCM while same method is not applied for eq B .

Explanation:

Given as :

The two statement are

A) The LCM of 5 , 13 = 65

Here The multiple of 5 = 1 × 5

And The multiple of 13 = 1 × 13

So, Applying prime factor method,

least common multiple = product of height power of all factors that occur in resolution

So, LCM = 1 × 5 × 1 × 13

i.e LCM = 65

Again

B) The LCM of 6 , 8 = 24

Here The multiple of 6 = 1 × 2 × 3

And The multiple of 8 = 1 × 2 × 2 × 2

i.e The multiple of 8 = 1 × 2³

So, Applying prime factor method,

least common multiple = product of height power of all factors that occur in resolution

So, LCM = 2³ × 3

i.e LCM = 24

Hence, It is clear that the multiplication of two values in Eq A is done to get the LCM while same method is not applied for eq B . Answer
