Does 6 and 8 have the same LCM?
No.A single number does not have an LCM, only a set of number can have an LCM. So 6 does not have an LCM and 8 does not have an LCM. If neither number have an LCM, they cannot have the same LCM.However, the C in LCM stands for COMMON and so the LCM is a multiple that they share.6 and 9 have a different LCM to 6 and 8.
What mystery number pair has 70 as a LCM?
There are a whole lot of pairs. 2 and 35 is one pair.
How can the LCM be equal to the greatest number in the set?
If the other numbers are all factors of the greatest number, then that number will be the LCM. Example: 2, 4 & 8: both 2 and 4 are factors of 8, so 8 is the LCM. 2, 3 and 12: same thing, both 2 & 3 are factors of 12.
Can two numbers have the same least common multiple and greatest common factor?
Yes, they can. It should be noted that for such pairs of numbers, the LCM and GCF will always be the same, and always will be the lowest of the numbers. 6 and 12 are a good example; both have a GCF of 6 and a LCM of 6. not true. 2 numbers can't have the same gcf and lcm.
What is the the LCM of 2 and any odd number?
