What is the greatest common multiple of 8 and 16?
it could be anything since numbers go on forever you need to specify a max number
What is the quotient when the least common multiple of 4 and 6 divided by the greatest common factor of 4 and 6?
I'm not sure but if you could you could ask a professor or a math professor
When the lowest common multiple of three numbers is 30 two of the numbers are 2 and 5 what could the third number be?
The third number could be: 3, 6, 15 or 30
What is the lowest common multiple of 135 and 225?
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)
The greatest common factor of two numbers is 479. One number is even and the other is odd. Neither is divisible by the other. What are the smallest numbers they could be?
2 AND 3
What is the greatest common multiple of 12 and 18?
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.
Could you find the greatest common multiples of two numbers?
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.
What is the greatest common multiple for 15 and 35?
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.
What are the gcm of 625 and 500?
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.
What is the definition of 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.
What is the greatest common multiple of 88 and 112?
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.

Why could the GCF and LCM of a set of numbers be considered a oxymoron?
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.
What is the greatest common multiple of 12 and 25?
that could go on forever, but the least common multiple is 300
What is the greatest common multiple of 35 and 50?
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.
Could there be greatest common multiples for two numbers and why?
No. Numbers don't stop.
The greatest common factor of 2 numbers is 5 What could the 2 numbers be?
it can be 60,10
