No
(12 can be divided by three but not by eight)
24 is the lowest multiple of 3 & 8
The LCM of 8, 12 and 3 is 24
12
I do it like this: -- The first multiple of 8 is 8. That's not a multiple of 12. -- The second multiple of 8 is 16. That's not a multiple of 12. -- The third multiple of 8 is 24. That IS a multiple of 12, and it's the first one we ran into. or -- The first multiple of 12 is 12. That's not a multiple of 8. -- The second multiple of 12 is 24. That IS a multiple of 8, and it's the first one we ran into.
To find the least common multiple (LCM) of 3, 8, and 12, we first need to find the prime factorization of each number. The prime factorization of 3 is 3, 8 is 2 x 2 x 2, and 12 is 2 x 2 x 3. To calculate the LCM, we take the highest power of each prime factor that appears in any of the numbers: 2^3 x 3 = 24. Therefore, the least common multiple of 3, 8, and 12 is 24.
8 is not a multiple of 3.
The LCM of 3, 8, 12 and 30 is 120.
THE LCM OF 3 8 12 15 is 120.
It is 24
It is: 24
It is: 24
The least common multiple of 3, 8, 9, and 12 is 72.
