Oh, what a happy little question! To find the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 6, 18, and 24, we look for the smallest number that all three numbers can evenly divide into. First, we list the prime factors of each number: 6 = 2 x 3, 18 = 2 x 3^2, and 24 = 2^3 x 3. Then, we take the highest power of each prime factor that appears in any of the numbers, which gives us 2^3 x 3^2 = 72. So, the LCM of 6, 18, and 24 is 72.

The least common multiple is an arithmetic application that applies two or more numbers. It cannot be found using only a single number.

Break each number into its prime divisors:
2*3 = 6
2*32 = 18
23*3 = 24

Then take the common divisors and multiply:
23*32 = 72
