Multiples of 5 include 5, 10, 15 and 20. For them to be common, they need to be compared to another set of multiples.
This will be difficult to answer accurately since you haven't told us the pairs of numbers.
24 and 48
24, 48, 72.
The common multiples of any two or more numbers are the multiples of their lowest common multiple.lcm(3, 4, 5) = 60→ first three common multiples are:60 x 1 = 6060 x 2 = 12060 x 3 = 18060, 120, 180
The first three common multiples of 6 and 8 are the first three multiples of the least common multiple of 6 and 8. 6 = 2 x 3 and 8 = 2 x 2 x 2. Therefore, the LCM of 6 and 8 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 or 24. The first three multiples of 24 are 24, 48 and 72.
The first thing you should notice is that both 8 and 12 are evenly divisible by 2. This means that any common multiples of 8 and 12 will also be multiples of 2. So we only really need to find the first three common multiples of 8 and 12.First common multiple: 248 * 3 = 2412 * 2 = 24(2 * 12 = 24)Second common multiple: 488 * 6 = 4812 * 4 = 48(2 * 24 = 48)Second common multiple: 728 * 9 = 7212 * 6 = 72(2 * 36 = 72)
