You need at least two numbers to find an LCM.
If X is a multiple of 4, it will be the LCM.
The prime factorization of 4 is 2 x 2. It is not possible to find the LCM of a single number.
The least common multiple of 4 , 13 , 16 = 208
To find the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of three numbers, you first need to find the LCM of two of the numbers, and then find the LCM of that result with the third number. The LCM of 13 and 14 is 182, as they share no common factors. Then, finding the LCM of 182 and 15, the LCM is 2730, as 182 and 15 share no common factors either. Therefore, the LCM of 13, 14, and 15 is 2730.
