What is the HCM of 108 and 180?
There can be no HCM (Highest Common Multiple). Suppose x is the HCM of two numbers a and b. That is to say, x is a multiple of a, x is a multiple of b and x is the highest such number. Now consider the number 2x. It is a multiple of a, it is a multiple of b and it is greater than x. This contradicts the statement that x is the highest such number. So such an x cannot exist.
How do youget 24 asth LCM of 12 and 8?
I do it like this: -- The first multiple of 8 is 8. That's not a multiple of 12. -- The second multiple of 8 is 16. That's not a multiple of 12. -- The third multiple of 8 is 24. That IS a multiple of 12, and it's the first one we ran into. or -- The first multiple of 12 is 12. That's not a multiple of 8. -- The second multiple of 12 is 24. That IS a multiple of 8, and it's the first one we ran into.
What is the greatest common multiple of 90 and 120?
The greatest common multiple of any set of multiples is infinite.
What is the greatest denominator for 4 and 19?
There can be no greatest denominator. Suppose x is the greatest denominator of two numbers a and b. That is to say, x is a multiple of a, x is a multiple of b and x is the greatest such number. Now consider the number 2x. It is a multiple of a, it is a multiple of b and it is greater than x. This contradicts the statement that x is the greatest such number. So such an x cannot exist.
