15
The Least Common Multiple (LCM) for 5 and 8 is 40.
That would be 15
The least multiple is 3. It is not the least COMMON multiple, but the question was not about common multiples.
The Least Common Multiple (LCM) for 2 3 5 is 30.
The least common multiples of 5, 11, and 13 is 715.
There can only be one "least", and it's 30 .
The LCM of 3 and 5 is 15. The multiples of 3 are , 6, 9, 12, 15, and so on. The multiples of 5 are 5, 10, 15, and so on. The LCM is 15.
All common multiples of a set of numbers are multiples of the least common multiple. Therefore:* Use any standard procedure to find the LEAST common multiple. * Multiply that by 1, by 2, by 3, etc. to find additional common multiples.
15 1*15 =15 5*3 = 15
The LCM is 30. The next common multiple is 60.
The word "least" is a superlative. What that means is that there cam be only one such number. Therefore 2, 3 and 5 have only one least common multiple, not least common multiples! LCM(2, 3, 5) = 30.
