Common multiples are numbers which multiply to give both (or more) of the numbers you are looking at; for instance in the 2 times table, it goes 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20; and in the 4 times table it goes 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40. The numbers that are the same in those tables are the common multiples. However if you are looking for the Lowest Common Multiple (LCM), then you need to pick the lowest number in both the tables which is the SAME, in this case 4.
