it could be anything since numbers go on forever you need to specify a max number
I'm not sure but if you could you could ask a professor or a math professor
To find pairs of numbers with 10 as their least common multiple, we need to consider the prime factors of 10, which are 2 and 5. One pair of numbers could be 2 and 10, as their least common multiple is 10. Another pair could be 5 and 10, as their least common multiple is also 10. These pairs have 10 as their least common multiple because they share the prime factors of 10.
The third number could be: 3, 6, 15 or 30
well, it could be 1... (for any two numbers) but besides that it would be 3 (since we could tell that 2 isn't a multiple in either 135 or 225)
There is no such thing as the Greatest Common Multiple. For any multiple calculated, you could add the LCM to get a higher number; essentially, the greatest common multiple of any set of numbers is infinite. The least common multiple of 12 and 18 is 36, The greatest comon factor of 12 and 18 is 6.
Yes! Another opinion: No, you could not, because there is no such thing. Whatever number you bring me, and tell me that it is the greatest common multiple of two numbers, then no matter how big your number is, all I have to do is multiply your number by the product of those two numbers, and I have a new, bigger, common multiple.
There can be no greatest common multiple. If x were the greatest common multiple, then 2x would be a still greater common multiple. So x could not be the greatest. Thus there is no such thing as a greatest common multiple.
There can be no greatest common multiple. For, if x were the greatest common multiple, then 2x would be (a) a common multiple and (b) greater than x. So x could not have been the greatest common multiple.
I suppose the greatest common multiple could be considered as infinity. Once you calculate the least common multiple, you could keep doubling it forever. You could never determine a greatest common multiple, because every time you decided on a number, you could double it or multiply it by another positive integer, and have an even larger common multiple. There are an infinite number of common multiples.
Short answer: There is not one. You could say that the greatest common multiple is infinity since there are an infinite number of common multiples. If you give a specific number as the greatest common multiple, you can always find a larger one by doubling it. For example, 9856 is a common multiple of 88 and 112. But, it is not the greatest common multiple. I can double it to make a larger common multiple: 19,712. I could multiply this one by 100 to make an even larger common multiple: 1,971,200. I can always make a larger common multiple.

The greatest common factor is the greatest number that fits evenly into all of the numbers. The least common multiple is the smallest number that is divisible by all of the numbers in the set. they are kind of like opposites of one another.
that could go on forever, but the least common multiple is 300
Short answer: There is not one. You could say that the greatest common multiple is infinity since there are an infinite number of common multiples. If you give a specific number as the greatest common multiple, then no matter how great it is, I can always make a greater common multiple by adding 350 to yours.
No. Numbers don't stop.
it can be 60,10
