The function of the numbers in question. The process is the same. When comparing two whole numbers, we call it the LCM. When comparing two fractions, we call it the LCD.

To find the two numbers, we can use the fact that the LCM of two numbers is equal to the product of the two numbers divided by their greatest common divisor (GCD). Since the LCM is 60, and the difference of the two numbers is 3, we can set up a system of equations. Let the two numbers be x and y. We have xy/GCD(x,y) = 60 and x - y = 3. By solving these equations simultaneously, we can find the two numbers.
The LCM of two numbers is sometimes the product of the two numbers.
Any set of numbers has an infinite number of multiples. 3 and 5 have 15, 30, 45, 60 and on and on. The smallest of these, 15, is the Least Common Multiple, or LCM.
Just write a method or function that calculates the LCM for two numbers at a time. Then calculate the LCM for the first two numbers, get the LCM of the result with the third number, etc.Just write a method or function that calculates the LCM for two numbers at a time.

The HCF is always a factor of the LCM of two numbers. The HCF is a factor of both the numbers which are factors of their LCM. Thus the HCF is also a factor of the LCM of the two numbers.
