The only Least Common Multiple (LCM) for 2 12 is 12.
The least common multiple of 2 , 3 , 4 = 12
The common multiples of 2 and 3 are 6, 12, 18, and so on.6, 12, 18 and so on.
To find the least common denominator, list the multiples of each denominator. The lowest one they have in common is the LCD.For example:2/3 and 3/4:The multiples of 3 are: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 24...The multiples of 4 are: 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24...The common multiples are 12 and 24. Since 12 is the least, it is the LCM.
The first 2 common multiples of 4 and 12 are 12 and 24.
The multiples of 12 are 12, 24, 36, 48 and keep on adding 12.The multiples of 16 are 16, 32, 48, 64 and keep on adding 16.If you look at the two of these, you can see there is a least common multiple. A least common multiple is the smallest multiple that are shared by two (or more) numbers. If you list the multiples down, you can see 48 are in both, so 48 is the least common multiple for 12 and 16.
Use some method which you probably already learned, to find the least common multiple. All the other common multiples are multiples of this least common multiple, so you can multiply the least common multiple by 2, by 3, by 4, etc., to get additional common multiples.
The Least Common Multiple (LCM) for 2 4 is 4.
The least common multiple of 2, 3, and 4 is 12.First, you list the multiples of each number. Multiples are basically counting by that number.For example, here are a few multiples of 2, 3, and 4:2: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, etc.3: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, etc.4: 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, etc.
No, 2 and 28 are not multiples of 56, they are factors.
No, they are just multiples of 2.
2 is your LCM of 8 and 12 because the factors of 8 are 1,2,4,8. 2 is a factor, not a multiple, of 8 and 12. The least common multiple (LCM) of 8 and 12 is 24.
All numbers have multiples. Some numbers have some of the same multiples as other numbers. These are known as common multiples. The smallest of these is known as the least common multiple. Common multiples of 3 and 4 include 12, 24, 36 and so on. The LCM of 3 and 4 is 12.
