If you are asking for the least common multiple, it is 672
This question makes no sense whatsoever. The world "least" is a superlative term. That means there can be only one such number. So two numbers cannot be LCMs in the same scenario. Next, the least "common" multiple (LCM) refers to a multiple that is COMMON to two or more numbers. You have only one number, 48, in the question! The least common multiple of 48 and some other number must be at least as great as 48 and so two numbers - if they could exist, would have a sum of at least 48 + 48 = 96. You need to read up on LCM
There is no greatest common multiple of two (or more) numbers: whatever number you come up with as the greatest common multiple I can always add their lowest common multiple to get an even higher common multiple. If you meant the LOWEST common multiple (the least number that both divide into with a remainder) then lcm(72, 180) = 360. If you meant the greatest common FACTOR (the greatest number that divides into both), then gcf(72, 180) = 36.
Least common denominator means the LCM (least common multiple) of the denominator of a set of fractions. However, here is only 1 number provided in the question, 72, and even then 72 is not a fraction. Therefore, there is no least common denominator for 72.
The LCM (Least Common Multiple) would be 30. The GCF (Greatest Common Factor) would be 1.
The LCM of 2 and any even number is that number.
The Least Common Multiple (LCM) for 3 5 7 8 is 840.
LCM stands for "least common multiple." By definition, they are multiples of each number, odd or even.
The least common multiple (LCM) is often also called the lowest common multiple or smallest common multiple. Keep in mind that these different terms all refer to the same thing: the smallest positive integer which is a multiple of two or more numbers.The least common multiple of 17 and 51 is 51.

Two or more whole numbers are required to determine their least common multiple. The LCM (least common multiple) is the smallest positive whole number exactly divisible by two or more given whole numbers.A least common multiple needs at least two arguments.A common multiple of just one number makes no sense.
28, as 2 times 14 equals 28. Remember, any even number is a multiple of 2!
The least common factor of any sets of numbers is 1.The least common MULTIPLE, the smallest number into which all the numbers divide, of 16, 24 and 32 is 96The HIGHEST common factor, the largest number which divides into all the numbers, of 16, 24 and 32 is 8.There is no HIGHEST common MULTIPLE as whatever value is said to be it can be increased by adding their LOWEST common MULTIPLE to get an even higher common multiple.

If the missing number is even, it's the LCM. If it's odd, it's half of the LCM.
There is really no such thing as a "greatest common multiple". Once you find the least common multiple of a set of numbers, you can keep adding the LCM to itself over and over again. Each new number you get will be a common multiple of your set of numbers, but each new number will always be larger than the previous. This means that you can keep adding while the number approaches infinity and you will still never find a greatest multiple. Furthermore, even if you had asked about the least common multiple it would not have been possible to give a sensible answer to this question. The least common multiple (LCM) refers to a multiple that is COMMON to two or more numbers. You have only one number in the question!
72 is the least common multiple of 12, 24, and 36. A least common multiple is the smallest number that two or more numbers can be divided into evenly. Thus, 12 divides into 72 to get an even 6, 24 can be divided into 72 to get 3, and 36 can be divided into 72 to get 2.
