Answer:
12 x^4 y^2
Step-by-step explanation:
6x^2y^2 and 12 x^4 y
First find the least common multiple of the coefficients
6 and 12
12 is the smallest number that they both go into
Then find the least common multiple of the x terms
x^2 and x^4
x^4 is the smallest that they both go into
Then find the least common multiple of the y terms
y^2 and y
y^2 is the smallest that they both go into
The least common multiple is
12 x^4 y^2
