SOLUTION: find the LCD for -5/x^2t and x/t^3 a. x^2t^3 b. x^2t c. xt^2 d. x^2t^2 i dont understand how to find the lcd at all im really confused with this because on the first fractio

Question 91935: find the LCD for -5/x^2t and x/t^3
a. x^2t^3
b. x^2t
c. xt^2
d. x^2t^2
i dont understand how to find the lcd at all im really confused with this because on the first fraction both x and t are the denominator. but the second fraction has them split up on top and bottom. xan someone help me clear up how to work this out?

find the LCD for -5/x^2t and x/t^3
--------------
The LCD must contain each of the factors of the denominator in its highest
power.
------------------
You have
x^2 in the denominator so there must be an x^2 factor
you have t and t^3 so there must be a t^3
-----------------
The LCD is x^2t^3
