There is really no 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.
The greatest common factor of 15 and 40 is 5
15/40 = 3/8 by dividing the highest common factor of 15 and 40 which is 5
The greatest common multiple of any two or more numbers cannot be determined because the common multiples of any two or more numbers are infinite.

The greatest common multiple of any set of integers is infinite.
The greatest common multiple of any set of integers is infinite.
The greatest common multiple of any set of integers is infinite.
The greatest common multiple of any set of integers is infinite.
It is infinite but the lowest common multiple is 280
The greatest common multiple of any set of integers is infinite.
The greatest common factor of 15 and 40 is 5
Multiples are numbers greater than or equal to the number that the number will divide. So the multiples are: 5: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40 8: 8, 16, 24, 32, 40 So now we can see that 40 is the least common multiple of 5 and 8. Hope this helps.
The greatest common factor is 15
There is no greatest common multiple: for whatever value you say is the greatest I can always add their lowest common multiple (for 40 and 56 it is 280) and get an even greater common multiple.There is a greatest common FACTOR or a LOWEST common multiple:gcf(40, 56) = 8lcm(40, 56) = 280Using the factorisation method:40 = 2³ x 556 = 2³ x 7hcf = 2³ = 8lcm = 2³ x 5 x 7 = 280
5 is the GCF of 15 and 40.
The GCF of 10, 15, and 40 is 5.
