SO the lowest common multiple is 72
Then you multiply this by 2,3,4,5,6,7,8 etc, until you come to a number higher than 1000 and don't count it. So you have
144, 216, 288, 360, 432, 504, 576, 648, 720, 792, 864 and 936. This is 13 numbers total. You could alternatively divide 1000 by 72 and round down the decimal (because .8889 is incomplete, i.e. over 1000)

To find common multiples of two numbers, list the multiples of each.
8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 72, 80, 88, 96, etc
36, 72, 108, 144, 180, etc.
The common multiples of 8 and 36 are 36, 72, etc.
The least common multiple is 72. So take the number 72 and go through it's multiples. They will all be common multiples of 24 and 36.
12, 24, 36, 48.
18, 36, and 54
Multiples of 8 are 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48... Multiples of 6 are 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48... Multiples of 4 are 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40... Multiples that 8, 6, and 4 have in common are 24, 48, 72...
To find the common multiples of 3, 6, and 18, we need to list out the multiples of each number and find the numbers that appear in all three lists. The multiples of 3 are 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27, 30, and so on. The multiples of 6 are 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, and so on. The multiples of 18 are 18, 36, 54, 72, and so on. The first three common multiples of 3, 6, and 18 are 18, 36, and 54.
