The acronym LCM means least common multiple - or lowest common multipleThis is the smallest number which is a product of the numbers given.To calculate it, we need to get the factors of all the given numbers.the factors of 96 are 2, 2, 2, 2, 2 and 3the factors of 36 are 2, 2, 3 and 3Any factors which occur in both numbers need only be used once. All the factors of 36 are in the factors of 96 with the exception of the second 3.So, if we multiple 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 3 and 3 we will get the lowest common multiple - and the result is 288288 / 36 = 8288 / 96 = 3As 8 and 3 have no common factors we can see that there is no lower number which could be a common multiple of 36 and 96288
Factors of 36: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 36 Factors of 60: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 12, 15, 20, 30, 60 Factors of 96: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 32, 48, 96
Factors of 36 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, and 36. The factors of 72 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, and 72. All of the factors of 36 are also factors of 72.
48 is a factor of 96, so all the factors of 48 (1,2,3,4,6,8,12,16,24,48) are common to 96 as well.
The factors of 36 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, and 36 The factors of 96 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 32, 48, and 96

Since 48 is a factor of 96, all the factors of 48 will be factors of 96.
Factors of 36: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 36 Factors of 60: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 12, 15, 20, 30, 60 Factors of 96: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 32, 48, 96
Factors of 36 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, and 36. The factors of 72 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, and 72. All of the factors of 36 are also factors of 72.
Since 24 is a factor of 96, all the factors of 24 will be common to 96.
48 is a factor of 96, so all the factors of 48 (1,2,3,4,6,8,12,16,24,48) are common to 96 as well.
All factors of 18 are factors of 36, because 18 itself is a factor of 36.
