color(maroon)(L C M = 2r * (r + 1)LCM=2r(r+1)

Explanation:

2r + 2 = 2 * (r + 1)2r+2=2(r+1)

r^2 + r = r * (r + 1)r2+r=r(r+1)

"Three terms are " 2* (r + 1), r * (r + 1), 1 * (r + 1)Three terms are 2(r+1),r(r+1),1(r+1)

#"since " (r + 1) " is common in all the three terms",

:. L C M = (r + 1) * 2 * r * 1 = 2r * (r + 1)
