LCM or least common multiple of 24 and 18 is 72 so any multiple of 72 is a common multiple
To list them all we can write {m| m=72n for some natural number n) which means the set of all m such that m is a natural number multiple of 72
Or you can just say all common multiples of 24 and 18 are 72k where k = 1,2,3....

What is the LCM of 3 and 6 and 18?
The multiples of 3 are: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, etc ...The multiples of 6 are: 6, 12, 18, 24, etc ...The multiples of 18 are: 18, 36, 54, etc ...The lowest multiple common to 3, 6, and 18 is 18, so the LCM = 18.
Least common multiple of 3 and 9?
The least common multiple of 3 and 9 is 9. because: Multiples of three are: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15... Multiples of nine are: 9, 18, 27, 36.... The Least Common Multiple (LCM) there in both of the numbers is 9.
What is the common multiple of 2 3 and 9?
Since 9 is a multiple of 3, to answer this question we want only the multiples of 3 that are also multiples of 9. Thus, we need not consider 3 in answering this question. Thus we want to know the common multiples of 2 and 9. For positive integers, examples are 9x2x1=18, 9x2x2=36, 9x2x3=54, 9x2x4=72, .... Keep adding 18 to get more in this infinitely large set. This is an unusual question; was it an assignment for a class? For most math problems, it is only the least common multiple (LCM) that is needed, which is 18 for this question.
Is all multiples of three odd?
No, there is 6, 12, 18, 24 and so on so forth. Only half of them are odd.
What is the least common multiple of 6 and 9?
The LCM of 6 and 9 is: 18The prime factorization of 6 is 2 * 3The prime factorization of 9 is 3 * 3The LCM of 6 and 9 is 2 * 3 * 3 = 18Another method is to compare the multiples of each number in the set.The multiples of 6 are 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, and so onThe multiples of 9 are 9, 18, 27, 36, and so onSo the lowest common multiple is 18, as it's the smallest number that is in both lists.6x1=6 6x2=12 6x3=189x1=9 9x2=18 9x2=18The Least Common Multiple (LCM) for 6 9 is 18.
