2 and 40 4 and 10
To find pairs of numbers with a least common multiple (LCM) of 40, we need to consider the prime factorization of 40, which is 2^3 * 5. Any pair of numbers whose prime factorization includes these factors can have a LCM of 40. For example, 8 and 10 have a LCM of 40 because 8 = 2^3 and 10 = 2 * 5. Another pair could be 20 and 40, as both have the prime factors of 40.
The least common multiple is the smallest number that is multiple of two or more numbers. 24: 48, 72, 96, 120 40: 40, 80, 120 The LCM for 24 and 40 is 120.
If the numbers are x and y then x + y = 40 x - y = 10 so x = 25, y = 15 Then LCM(x, y) = LCM(25, 15) = 75
The HCF is always a factor of the LCM of two numbers. The HCF is a factor of both the numbers which are factors of their LCM. Thus the HCF is also a factor of the LCM of the two numbers.
You need at least two numbers to find an LCM.
