When a multiple is shared by 2 or more numbers that multiple is called?
A common multiple ex. 4 is a common multiple of 12 and 16
The least whole number that has two or more given numbers as factors is called the?
Lowest common multiple
Does a factor mean the same as a highest common multiple?
No.When talking about factors and multiples the numbers are integers (whole numbers).A factor of a number means that the number is a multiple of the factor; the factor divides into the number without any remainder.There is no such thing as a Highest Common Multiple - it is always possible to find a higher common multiple (by adding the Lowest Common Multiple to the supposed highest common multiple).There is a Lowest Common Multiple (LCM) which is the smallest number which is a multiple of two or more numbers. It is also called the Least Common Multiple, or when working with fractions it can be referred to as the Least Common Denominator as the two or more numbers are the denominators of the fractions and equivalent fractions are being sought to be able to do an addition or subtraction.There is a Highest Common Factor (HCF) which is the largest number which divides into each of the two or more numbers without remainder. It is also called the Greatest Common Factor. If the numbers are relatively prime (or co-prime) their HCF is 1.
The least multiple that two or more numbers share?
Their least common multiple (LCM).
What is the lowest common multiple of 6912?
Two or more numbers are needed to find the LCM
What is it called when a multiple is shared by two or more numbers?
A common multiple
When a multiple is shared by 2 or more numbers that multiple is called?
A common multiple ex. 4 is a common multiple of 12 and 16
Shared multiples of two or more numbers are called?
The Least Common Multiple (or Lowest Common Multiple) of a group of numbers, called the LCM, is the smallest number that's a multiple of all the numbers. For instance, the LCM of 16 and 20 is 80; 80 is the smallest number that's both a multiple of 16 and a multiple of 20.
What is the smallest number that is a multiple of two or more numbers called?
The smallest number that is a multiple of two or more numbers is called the least common multiple, or LCM.
What is the common multiple of 80?
A single number cannot have a "common multiple" - common multiples are shared by two or more numbers.
When a number is a multiple of two or more numbers in a set it is a?
A number that is a multiple oof two or numbers is called a common multiple
What do you call multiples that are shared by two or more numbers?
Those are known as "common multiples". The smallest POSITIVE of these common multiples is called the "least common multiple".
What is th lowest same multiple of two or more numbers called?
The Least Common Multiple, or LCM.
What is the least common multiple of 112?
the word "common" in least common multiple means a multiple that is shared by 2 or more numbers. So 112 can NOT have a common multiple. Maybe you meant 1 and 12 or 11 and 2? No way to know.
What is the LCM of 47?
You need at least two numbers to find an LCM. If that's 4 and 7, the LCM is 28.
Is the multiple with the least value that is held in common by two or more numbers?
That's the least common multiple, or LCM.
What is the greatest of the common factors of two or more numbers called?
The greatest common factor between two numbers. There is no term.
