There is really so 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.
The first few common multiples of 3, 5, and 8 are: 120, 240, 360, 480, and 600.
There is no greatest common multiple: for whatever value you say is the greatest I can always add their lowest common multiple and get an even greater common multiple.There is a greatest common FACTOR and a LOWEST common multiple:gcf(5, 6) = 1lcm(5, 6) = 30
5 and any multiple of 5 5,10 5,15 5,20
There is no answer.
5
Don't you mean least common multiple? The least common multiple is 210.
The LCM or least common multiple of 3 and 5 is 15.The GCF or greatest common factor of 3 and 5 is 1.
There is no greatest common multiples for whatever common multiple is claimed to be the greatest the lowest common multiple of the numbers (in this case 15) can be added to get an even greater common multiple.
There is no greatest common multiple of 5 and 1: whatever common multiple is claimed to be the greatest, adding the lowest common multiple of 5 and 1 (namely 5) will give a greater common multiple.
It is infinite but the LCM is 30
It is infinity but the LCM is 120
The highest common multiple of two numbers is their least common multiple (LCM). The LCM of 3 and 5 is found by multiplying the two numbers and dividing by their greatest common divisor (GCD). In this case, the LCM of 3 and 5 is 15, as 3 * 5 / 1 = 15.
There is no greatest common multiple: for whatever value you say is the greatest I can always add their lowest common multiple and get an even greater common multiple.There is a greatest common FACTOR and a LOWEST common multiple:gcf(5, 6) = 1lcm(5, 6) = 30
Oh, dude, the greatest common multiple of 4, 5, and 3 is just the largest number that all of them can divide evenly into. So, you just gotta look at their multiples and find the biggest one they all share. It's like a math puzzle, but not as fun as a jigsaw puzzle, you know?
The greatest common multiple of any set of integers is infinite.
There is no greatest common multiple: for whatever value you say is the greatest I can always add their lowest common multiple and get an even greater common multiple.There is a greatest common FACTOR or a LOWEST common multiple:gcf(40, 56, 96) = 8lcm(40, 56, 96) = 3360Using the factorisation method:40 = 2^3 x 556 = 2^3 x 796 = 2^5 x 3hcf = 2^3 = 8lcm = 2^5 x 3 x 5 x 7 = 3360
5 and any multiple of 5 5,10 5,15 5,20
The greatest common multiple of any set of integers is infinite.
