There is NO greatest common multiple.
Suppose x is the greatest common multiple.
Then, it is easy to show that 2x will be a common multiple and 2x > x so x cannot be the greatest.

Greatest common multiple of 3 and 4?
There is no 'greatest common multiple' of any two numbers. You can keep multiplying towards infinity and you will never reach a maximum. You may either be thinking of... ...the least common multiple of 3 and 4, which is 12. ...the greatest common denominator of 3 and 4, which is 1.
What is the greatest common multiple for 3 and 4?
The greatest common multiple is an infinite amount and not very practical for problem solving.
What is the greatest common multiple of 8 and 20?
The greatest common multiple of 8 and 20 is 4.
What does greatest common multiple mean?
A multiple of a number x is xy where y is any integer. For example, multiples of 3 include 12 (3x4) 15 (3x5) and 36 (3x12) A common multiple of x and z is any number that can be expressed as a multiple of x or z. For instance 36 is a common multiple of 3 and 4, as it is a multiple of both. The term "greatest" means the highest valued number. For instance, the greatest out of 4, 68 and 20 is 68. It makes no sense to speak of a "greatest common multiple" as common multiples will go up to infinity. If I have a common multiple m, then 2m, 3m, 4m and so on will also be common multiples.
Gcm of 20 and 8?

What is the greatest common multiple of 8 and 20?
The greatest common multiple of 8 and 20 is 4.
What is the greatest multiple of 4 and 3?
There is no such number. If X were a common multiple of 4 and 3 then a number of the form k*X (where k is any integer) would also be a multiple. There is no limit to how large k can be and so no greatest multiple.
What is the greatest common factor and least common multiple of 4 and 32?
