What is the least common multiple of 24 42 and 60?

Answer 1

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.

Answer 2

The least common multiple of the numbers 48 and 60 is 240.

Answer 3

192

48 is a multiple of 24, so you can ignore 24 completely. 48 = 16 x 3 and 64 = 16 x 4, so the LCM is 16 x 3 x 4 = 192.

Answer 4

The least common multiple of the numbers 30, 36 and 48 is 720.

Answer 5

The greatest common multiple of any set of integers is infinite.

Answer 6

The LCM of 24, 42, and 60 is 840

Answer 7

LCM(24, 30, 48, 60) = 240.

Answer 8

240

Answer 9

120

Answer 10

240
