LCM = 72
prime factorization of:
24 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 3
9--= ------------ 3 x 3
==============
LCM=2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 = 72
Common denominators. These are called "common multiples". For example, multiples of 4 are: 4,8,12,16,20,24 ... . Multiples of 6 are: 6,12,18,24,30,36 ... . The numbers on both lists are the common multiples and they include: 12,24,36, ... . Specifically, the smallest number in any such list of common multiples (12 in this example) is known as the Least (or Lowest) Common Multiple or LCM.
12, 24, 36, 49, 60, 72, 84 28, 56, 84
The Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 120 and 240 is 240. Because 240 is a multiple of 120, it is automatically the LCM of the pair. If you didn't notice that, you could also list the multiples of each number in the set, then choose the lowest one found in both lists and call it the least common multiple. Th multiples of 120 are 120, 240, 360, and so on. The multiples of 240 are 240, 480, 720, and so on. So the least common multiple of 120 and 240 is 24.
List the multiples.4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 286, 12, 18, 24, 308, 16, 24, 3224 is the smallest number on all the lists, the LCM.
The multiples of 8 are 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48 and so on.The multiples of 10 are 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 and so on.40 is the first number to appear on both lists.
The multiples of 75: 75, 150, 225, 300, 375, 450, 525, 600, 675, 750, 825, ... The multiples of 250: 250, 500, 750, 1000, ... The least common multiple is the number in both lists that is the least. For 75 and 250, the least common multiple is 750.
You won't find common factors by using lists of multiples. The least common factor of any set of integers is 1, no matter what you use.
Oh, what a happy little question! To find the least common multiple of 12 and 22, we first need to find the multiples of each number. The multiples of 12 are 12, 24, 36, 48... and the multiples of 22 are 22, 44, 66, 88... The least common multiple is the smallest number that appears in both lists, which in this case is 132. Just a little math magic to brighten your day!
The term common in the question means a multiple that is shared by one or more numbers.Since 42 is a single number, it can have no common multiples.If you said, 42 and 2, then we could look at the multiples of 42 and the multiples of 2, make two lists, and see what is in common with those two lists.If you list the multiples of 42 alone, you have nothing to compare it with.
The lists of factors of 126 and multiples of 12 do not have any numbers in common.
Common denominators. These are called "common multiples". For example, multiples of 4 are: 4,8,12,16,20,24 ... . Multiples of 6 are: 6,12,18,24,30,36 ... . The numbers on both lists are the common multiples and they include: 12,24,36, ... . Specifically, the smallest number in any such list of common multiples (12 in this example) is known as the Least (or Lowest) Common Multiple or LCM.
List the multiples.27, 54, 81, 108, 13536, 72, 108, 144108 is the smallest number on both lists.
The least common multiple of 9 and 36 is Positive multiples of 9= 9, 18, 27, 36, 45, 54, 63 Positive multiples of 36 36, 72 Notice 36 is the first number to appear on both lists. The LCM of 9 and 36 is 36.
On the lists of multiples of 24 and 30, 120 is the first number to appear on both lists.24, 48, 72, 96, 120, 14430, 60, 90, 120, 150
List the multiples.36, 72, 108, 14427, 54, 81, 108, 135108 is the smallest number on both lists: the LCM.
The common multiples of 4 and 5 are 20, 40, 60, 80,100 and so onGet the least common multiple of the two. All other common multiples are multiples of this least common multiple.Any multiple of 20.
A common multiple is a number that appears on all the lists of multiples of a given set of numbers. 3, 6, 9, 12 4, 8, 12 12 is a common multiple of 3 and 4.
