The least common multiple (LCM) is often also called the lowest common multiple or smallest common multiple. Keep in mind that these different terms all refer to the same thing: the smallest positive integer which is a multiple of two or more numbers.The least common multiple of 8 and 346 is 1384.

The least common multiple (LCM) is often also called the lowest common multiple or smallest common multiple. Keep in mind that these different terms all refer to the same thing: the smallest positive integer which is a multiple of two or more numbers.The least common multiple of 2 and 173 is 346.
Yes. It is a factor of 1, 2, 173 and 346
The least common factor of 346 and 8 is 1384.
You need at least two numbers to find an LCM. If that's 3, 4 and 6, the LCM is 12.
There is no highest common multiple. Whatever common multiple you come up with as being their highest common multiple, I can always add their lowest common multiple (120) to get a higher common multiple.
That's known as the least common multiple, or LCM.
A common multiple
The easiest way is to multiply the numbers together. The answer won't necessarily be the least common multiple, but it will be a common multiple. The easiest way to get a common multiple is to multiply the numbers together. The result will not necessarily be the least common multiple, but it will be a common multiple.
A common multiple is a multiple that two or more given numbers have in common. 16 is not a common multiple of 7 and 8. 16 is a common multiple of 4 and 8. So, it depends on the numbers for which you are trying to find a common multiple.
