How do you check lcm answer?
One way to check: The product of the original two numbers is equal to the product of their GCF and LCM. If you divide that product by their GCF, you will get the LCM.
Two numbers have their LCM equal to y if one of them is quadrupled and another multiplied by 6 find their LCM assume the factors which are not common to both are neither divisible by 2 nor 3?
The new LCM is 12y.
Hcf of two numbers is 87 and their LCM is 24960 if one of two numbers is 348 find the other number?
As a general rule, the product of the GCF and the LCM is equal to the product of the original numbers. That would make the answer to this problem 6240. Unfortunately, the GCF of 348 and 6240 isn't 87 and their LCM isn't 24960. Someone notated this problem incorrectly.
How do you find the LCM of 3 numbers through the common division method?
Find the LCM of the first two numbers and then find the LCM of that number and the third one. That answer will be the LCM of all three.
What LCM or two numbers is 60 and one of the numbers is 7 less than another number. What are the numbers .justify your answer?
The numbers are 12 and 5. 5 is seven less than 12 and the LCM of 5 and 12 is 60.
Is the LCM of a set of numbers equal to one of the numbers in the set always never or sometimes true?
sometimes
Is LCM pair numbers equal to one numbers?
Only if one of the numbers is a multiple of the other.
What are the math terms gcf and LCM?
GCF - Greatest Common Factor (GCF is always smaller or equal to at least one of the numbers) LCM - Least Common Multiple (LCM is always greater or equal to at least one of the numbers)

Is the LCM of a set of numbers is equal to the one of the numbers in the set?
Yes, if one of the numbers is a multiple of the other.
How do you find the other number when the one number is given with the LCM and the GCF?
The product of the original numbers is equal to the product of the GCF and LCM. Divide the product of the LCM and GCF by the one number. The answer will be the other.
When can the LCM of two numbers be one of those numbers?
The LCM of 2 numbers can be one of those numbers when the large of the 2 numbers is 2 times the smaller one of those numbers. For example the LCM of 2 and 4 is 4. For example the LCM of 5 and 10 is 10.
Two numbers have their LCM equal to y if one of them is quadrupled and another multiplied by 6 find their LCM assume the factors which are not common to both are neither divisible by 2 nor 3?
The new LCM is 12y.
Can a LCM be one?
Yes, if the the number you are finding the LCM of is 1. But usually, LCM involves two or more numbers. While finding the LCM of one number is uncommon and technically an incorrect practice, it is possible.
Is the LCM of two numbers that have no common factors their product?
The LCM of two numbers is one of the numbers when one of the numbers is a multiple of the other. The LCM of two numbers is the product of the numbers when they are relatively prime. In all other cases (like consecutive even numbers that aren't 2 and 4) the LCM is as you describe.
Why does dividing the product by the GCF always give you the LCM?
In number theory, the product of two positive integers will equal the product of their GCF and LCM. Dividing that product by one of them will give you the other.
Is there a LCM in the numbers 301 and 371?
There is always an LCM. This one is 15,953.
