A common multiple is used to compare the multiples of two or more numbers - a single number cannot have any common multiples.
16, 32, 48. Since 16 is divisible by 4. Every multiple of 16 is also a multiple of 4, so I just took the first 3 multiples of 16.
The Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 16 and 32 is 32. The other common multiples of 16 and 32 are all multiples of 32, i.e. 32, 64, 96, 128, 160, 192, 224, etc.
Well, honey, the common multiples of 4, 8, and 16 are numbers that all three can divide evenly into. So, the first few common multiples would be 16, 32, 48, and so on. Just keep adding 16 to get more of those bad boys. Happy counting!
To find the common multiples of 16 and 30, first find the LCM: The prime factorization of 16 is 2*2*2*2 The prime factorization of 30 is 2*3*5 So the LCM is 16*30 / 2 = 240. All of the common multiples of 16 and 30 will be multiples of 240, so they are 240, 480, 720, 960, 1200, etc. There is an infinite number of common multiples for 16 and 30. A common multiple of any two numbers is any number into which each of two or more numbers can be divided evenly (zero remainder).
