Given a set of numbers, their common multiple is (usually) a positive integer which is evenly divisible by each of the set of numbers. Common multiples of variables or algebraic expressions are defined in a similar manner.
They are all multiples.
A common multiple of a set of numbers is at least as big as the largest of the numbers.Each of the numbers of the set will divide a common multiple evenly.
Those are known as "common multiples". The smallest POSITIVE of these common multiples is called the "least common multiple".
CJ:there are no common multiples for 25
All multiples of 840 are common multiples of 60 and 280
the common multiples are most all of the multiples of 8
uhhhhh
Common Multiples of 8:8,16,24,32,40,48,56,64,72,80,88 and 96 Common Multiples of 12:12,24,36,48,60,72,84 and 96
Common multiples of 9 and 10 are all of the multiples of 90.
there are infinite amount of common multiples.
A word problem that involves common multiples could be, "Whatare the common multiples of 10 and 15?"
Common multiples and common denominators can be found using the same process. They differ in their function. Common denominators are common multiples that are functioning as denominators.
