What is the lcg of 3 and 4?
I assume you mean LCM, least common multiple. The least common multiple of 3 and 4 is 12. 12 is a multiple of 3. 12 is a multiple of 4. No smaller number is a multiple of both 3 and 4.
What is the least common factor of 5 and 12?
The least common factor of 5 and 12 is the smallest number which divides both of them and it is 1, as it is for all pairs of numbers.(It is also the highest common factor of 5 and 12, as 5 and 12 only have one common factor: 1.)The least, or lowest, common multiple of a pair of numbers is the smallest number which is a multiple of both of them, which for 5 and 12 is 60.
Why is 12 the least common multiple of 4 and 6?
The Least Common Multiple (LCM) is the smallest number that two or more numbers will divide into evenly and 12 is the smallest number that both 4 and 6 divide into evenly.
What is the greatest common multiple of 12 and 72?
There is no greatest common multiple of any set of numbers. Whatever number you say is their greatest common multiple, I can add their lowest common multiple and get an even greater number.I suspect you want one of:Greatest Common Factor (the highest (positive) number that divides into both without any remainder): GCF(72, 12) = 12Lowest Common Multiple (the lowest (positive) number that is a multiple of both, that is they both divide into without any remainder); LCM(72, 12) = 72
Is the least multiple other then 0 common to sets of multiples?
This is the lowest common multiple which is the smallest number greater than 0 which is a multiple of all the numbers. for example the lowest common multiple (lcm) of 4 and 6 is 12 as 12 is the first (smallest) number greater than 0 that is a multiple of both 4 and 6.
