The Least Common Multiple (LCM) of the numbers 2, 6 is 6.
You need at least two numbers to compare multiples.
The common multiples of 9 and 16 are 144, 288, 432 and so on.
lcm(4, 9) = 36 → the two least common multiples (ie the first two common multiples) of 4 and 9 are 36 and 72.
Those are known as "common multiples". The smallest POSITIVE of these common multiples is called the "least common multiple".
The two smallest multiples of 10 are 10 and 20. For them to be common, they would need to be compared to another set of multiples.
You need at least two numbers to find something in common.
The least common multiple of 30 , 32 = 480
The least common multiple, or LCM
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.
