In any set of relatively prime numbers, like 4 and 9, their GCF is 1 and their LCM is their product.
When they have no common prime factors.
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.
There is no LCM for less than two numbers. LCM is the multiple of the highest power of prime factors in two or more numbers. Example: LCM 0f 9, 15, and 25 is 225, which is the multiple of the highest power of prime factors in 9, 15, and 25 (32 x 52).
LCM is the multiple of the highest power of prime factors in the numbers. Example: LCM 0f 9 and 25 is 225, which is the multiple of the highest power of prime factors in 9 and 25 (32 x 52).
If they don't both divide by 3 then no multiple of 3 can be a common factor...
No, this will find a common multiple, but not always the least. For example, 2 and 4 have a least common multiple of 4 but if you multiply them you get 8. In fact, the LCM will only be the product of two numbers if the numbers have no common factors. We call numbers with no common factors relatively prime.
to find the least common multiple of two numbers you must list the factors then you can find out their least common multiple of the two numbers
Calculate the least common multiple of the three numbers. Any multiple of that has all those numbers as factors.
Factors go into numbers, numbers go into multiples.
Yes - if two numbers share no common factors (besides 1) the least common multiple will be the product of the numbers.
When they have no common prime factors.
A number is an exact multiple of each of a group of numbers. For example, 15 and 30 are common multiple of 3 and 5.
The factors that they share. Example: 30 and 42 1,2,3,5,6,10,15,30 1,2,3,6,7,14,21,42 1,2,3 and 6 are the common factors, the factors in common.
When the two numbers have no common factors. This is called relatively prime.
Yes. If A and B are any two whole numbers then A*B is a common multiple. Then either A*B is the least common multiple of A and B or one of its factors is.
By finding their prime factors
A common multiple is a number that two or more other numbers can both go into. For example, a common multiple of 2, 4, and 6 would be 12.Not sure what you mean by a "comman" multiple, but a commonmultiple of a set of numbers is a number that is a multiple of each number in the set. That is, it is in the multiplication table of each of the numbers in the set. Note, though, that for this purpose, the multiplication tables do not stop at 10 times or 12 times.All numbers have multiples. Some numbers have some of the same multiples as other numbers. These are known as common multiples.18 is a multiple of 6.18 is a multiple of 9.18 is a common multiple of 6 and 9.All numbers have multiples. Some numbers have the same multiples as other numbers. These are called "common multiples."12 is a multiple of 3.12 is a multiple of 4.12 is a common multiple of 3 and 4.
