There was no such method because he would have known that there can be no such number.
There is really so such thing as a "greatest common multiple." Once you find the least common multiple of a set of numbers, you can keep adding the LCM to itself over and over again. Each new number you get will be a common multiple of your set of numbers, but each new number will always be larger than the previous. This means that you can keep adding while the number approaches infinity and you will still never find a greatest multiple.
What else can I help you with?
When do you use GCF and LCM?
Gcf you use when you are finding the greatest factor for the numbers. Lcm you use when you are finding the smallest multiple in the numbers factors
Can two even numbers have a greatest common multiple of 1?
The greatest common multiple of any set of numbers is infinite. The greatest common multiple of any set of numbers will never be one.
Can you find the greatest common multiple of two numbers?
The greatest common multiple of any two numbers is infinite.
Can you find the HCF of 3 numbers using euclids division lemma?
Yes.First find the HCF of two of the numbers, then find the HCF of that answer and the third number.In this way you could find the HCF of as many numbers as you want.
When is the product of two numbers divided by the greatest common multiple the least common multiple?
Never. The greatest common multiple of any two numbers is infinite.
What strategies can be used to find the greatest common multiple of two numbers?
The greatest common multiple of any two numbers is infinite.
What is the greatest multiple of 12 and 28?
Since the list of numbers is infinite, there is no such thing as the Greatest Common Multiple.
What is the greatest common multiple of 16 and 56?
The greatest common multiple of any set of numbers is infinite.
What is the greatest common multiple of 84 and 90?
The greatest common multiple of any set of numbers is infinite.
What is the greatest common multiple of 36 and 18?
The GREATEST common multiple is a number approaching infinity. The LEAST common multiple is 540.
What is the greatest common multiple of 1215and18?
There is no greatest common multiple of these numbers... or indeed of any pair of numbers. Once you get a common multiple, you can multiply that by any integer, as large as you want, to get a larger common multiple.
What does the greatest common multiple mean?
The definition of the greatest common multiple of any two numbers is an infinite number.
