Determine the prime factors for both numbers18 = 2 x 3 x 321 = 3 x 7As 3 is the only factor common to both numbers then 3 is the Lowest Common Factor and the Highest Common Factor.NOTE : In general questions are asked for the HighestCommon Factor and/or the Least (or Lowest Common Multiple.In case the LCM is required , then this is the product of the highest power of each prime factor. Hence, LCM = 2 x 32 x 7 = 2 x 9 x 7 = 126
The lowest common multiple of 3 and 9 is 9.
The LCM is: 9
LCF? lowest common factor? Don't you mean highest common factor? The lcf usually has no meaning: it is 1
The Least Common Multiple (LCM) for 3 4 9 is 36.
