There is really no such thing as a "greatest common multiple". Once you find the least common multiple of a set of numbers, you can keep adding the LCM to itself over and over again. Each new number you get will be a common multiple of your set of numbers, but each new number will always be larger than the previous. This means that you can keep adding while the number approaches infinity and you will still never find a greatest multiple.Besides, the word "common" implies that the multiple is common to two or more numbers. There is only one number in the question.

The greatest common multiple is an infinite amount and not very practical for problem solving.
The greatest common multiple of any set of integers is infinite.
The GREATEST common multiple is a number approaching infinity. The LEAST common multiple is 540.
There is no greatest common multiples for whatever common multiple is claimed to be the greatest the lowest common multiple of the numbers (in this case 15) can be added to get an even greater common multiple.
