A common multiple is a multiple that two or more given numbers have in common. 16 is not a common multiple of 7 and 8. 16 is a common multiple of 4 and 8. So, it depends on the numbers for which you are trying to find a common multiple.
There is no "most common multiple". To find all common multiples, you start by finding the least common multiple. All other common multiples are multiples of this least common multiple.
There can never be a greatest common multiple of one number for two reasons:"Common" refers to a multiple that is common to two or more numbers. You cannot have a multiple that is common, but only to one number.If X is the greatest common multiple of a set of numbers, then any multiple of X will also be a common multiple of each member of the set and it will be greater than X. And then, any multiple of this number will be a multiple of each member of the set and will be greater still. And then ...
There can be no greatest common multiple. If x were the greatest common multiple, then 2x would be a still greater common multiple. So x could not be the greatest. Thus there is no such thing as a greatest common multiple.
There is no greatest common multiple. Ever! If x were the greatest common multiple, then what about 2x? Since x is a multiple of 16 and 24 then so also is 2x, so that 2x is a COMMON multiple. And it would certainly be greater that x. So 2x is a common multiple that is greater than the greatest common multiple. What?!
Yes, ticks are quite common in the desert. Anywhere there is a patch of vegetation you can be sure that there are ticks laying in wait for a victim. I work with wildlife rehabilitation in the Chihuahuan Desert and have seen fleas, ticks and lice on may animals.
There is no highest common multiple. Whatever common multiple you come up with as being their highest common multiple, I can always add their lowest common multiple (120) to get a higher common multiple.
That's known as the least common multiple, or LCM.
There are many great ways to rid your dogs of ticks. The most common way is to get Tick Shampoo to wash the Ticks off of animals without harming them.
A common multiple
Lyme disease is caused by infected ticks. A red area around the bite and the formation of a ring is a common sign.
The easiest way is to multiply the numbers together. The answer won't necessarily be the least common multiple, but it will be a common multiple. The easiest way to get a common multiple is to multiply the numbers together. The result will not necessarily be the least common multiple, but it will be a common multiple.

Fleas, ticks and leeches are 3 common parasites
they all intake parasitic nutrition
flies,mosquitoes,fleas and ticks
Lowest Common Multiple-the smallest number that is a multiple of all the numbers in a given set; same as least common multiple. Example-for 6,9, and 18, 18 is the lowest common multiple. =]its lowest common multiple
