The least common multiple (LCM) of 8 and 3 is 24. To find the LCM multiply each prime factor by the greatest number of times it occurs in any of the numbers. The prime factorization of both numbers.

3=3

8=2*2*2

That would be three 2s and one 3.

2*2*2*3=24

It is not possible to give a sensible answer to this question. The least common denominator (LCD) refers to a multiple that is COMMON to two or more numbers. You have only one number in the question!

Least is a superlative: that means there can only be one such number.

LCM(3, 8) = 24.
