The LCM of 2 and 8 is 8. Since 8 is a multiple of 2, it is automatically the LCM.
To find the LCM of two numbers, list the multiples of each. 2: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 8: 8, 16, 24 Once you have a multiple that is common to both, you have found the LCM. In this case, the LCM is 8.

What is the least common multiple of 6 and 16?
The least common multiple of 6 and 16 is 48.6 = 2 * 3, 16 = 2 * 8, so 2 * 3 * 8 = 48 is the LCM
What is the least common multiple of 8 9 and 10?
The LCM of 8, 9, and 10 is 360. 8 = 2^3 9 = 3^2 10 = 5 x 2 The least common multiple is therefore 2^3 x 3^2 x 5 = 360
What is the least common multiple of 8 and 16?
The least common multiple of 16 and 8 is 16. Because 16 is a multiple of 8, it is automatically the LCM of the pair. Another approach: To find the least common multiple, factor each number to its prime factors and then multiply all the factors from the first number with any factors in the second number that are not repeated from the first number. The prime factors of 8 are 2 x 2 x 2. The prime factors of 16 are 2 x 2 x 2 x 2.
What is the least common multiple of 2 4 6 8?
24
What the least common multiple of 2 3 and 8?
LCM(2, 3, 8) = 24.
