The greatest common multiple of any set of integers is infinite.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Did you perhaps mean:the greatest common FACTOR (the greatest number which divides into 14 and 21 without remainder): gcf(14, 21) = 7;the LOWEST common multiple (the smallest number which is a positive multiple of both 14 and 21): lcm(14, 21) = 42
Since 21 is a factor of 84, it is automatically the GCF. Since 84 is a multiple of 21, it is automatically the LCM.
you would have to make a factor tree for 8, 14, and 21. 8 equals 2*2*2. 14 equals 7*2 and 21 equals 7*3. Then you have to see what is the lowest number that they have in common. 8,14,21 do not have a number in commone so there isn't a common multiple.

The least common factor is a term often mistakenly given to either the greatest common factor (GCF) or the least common multiple (LCM). This term is not often used because it does not describe a useful relationship between numbers. Since 1 evenly divides all integers, 1 is technically the least common factor for any set of integers.The smallest non-one common factor of 7 and 21 is 7.The Lowest Common Factor of any set of numbers is 1.I suspect this is not what you want. There are:Lowest Common Multiple which is the lowest (positive) whole number which is a multiple of all the numbers; LCM(7, 21) = 21 (3 × 7 = 21, 1 × 21 = 21);Highest Common Factor which is the largest (positive) whole number which divides into all the numbers without remainder, that is is a factor of all the numbers; HCF(7, 21) = 7 (7 = 1 × 7, 21 = 3 × 7).
If 21 is a multiple of the number, the number cannot have 90 as a factor.
The GCF of 21 and 84 is 21, since it is a factor of 84. The LCM of 21 and 84 is 84, since it is a multiple of 21.
No, 7 is a factor of them.
The factors of 21 are 1, 3, 7, 21. The factors which are not a multiple of 7 are 1 and 3.
Any multiple of 105.
No, it's a common factor.
7
21 has 3 as a factor and is a multiple of 7, and so as 210, 105, and an infinite number of other numbers.

Least Common Multiple:21 Greatest Common Factor:1
3 is a factor of 21 and it is not a multiple of 7.
Since 21 is a factor of 84, it is automatically the GCF. Since 84 is a multiple of 21, it is automatically the LCM.
