The highest common multiple (HCM) of two numbers is not a standard mathematical term; however, you might be referring to the least common multiple (LCM). The LCM of 24 and 40 can be found by determining the prime factorization of both numbers: 24 = 2^3 × 3 and 40 = 2^3 × 5. The LCM is obtained by taking the highest power of each prime factor, resulting in LCM(24, 40) = 2^3 × 3 × 5 = 120.
