Lowest common multiple. Say you have 2 numbers, 6 and 9. Their lowest common multiple is 18. This is the lowest number that both numbers will divide into evenly
The lowest common factor can not be larger than the lowest common factor. If you mean LCM (Lowest Common Multiple) and not LCF, the numbers are 5 and 150.
2 and 11 have a lowest common multiple of 22.
There is no largest common multiple of any set of numbers as whatever value is assumed to be the largest can be increased by adding the lowest common multiple of the numbers to get an even larger common multiple. For 2 and 3 the lowest common multiple is 6. So whatever number is assumed to be the largest common multiple it can always be increased by 6 to get a larger common multiple.
Lowest common multiple is the smallest whole number that is divisible by all the numbers. eg. the lowest common multiple of 70 and 14 is 14, the lowest common multiple of 2 and 3 is 6, or 7 and 8 is 56 etc. Normally found by multiplying the two numbers together, then seeing if there are any smaller than that
