Why is the least common factor not something of mathematical interest?

You do not find the greatest common multiple because there is really no such thing. 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.

What is the meaning of least common factors?
Least common factor is not a mathematical term because 1 is the least, or lowest, factor of any whole number and is common to all numbers. The Greatest Common Factor (GCF) is the largest factor common to two or more numbers. For example, 17 is the GCF of 34, 51, and 102 because it is the largest number that is a factor common to all three numbers.
