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.

What is the greatest common multiple of 12 and 18?
There is no such thing as the Greatest Common Multiple. For any multiple calculated, you could add the LCM to get a higher number; essentially, the greatest common multiple of any set of numbers is infinite. The least common multiple of 12 and 18 is 36, The greatest comon factor of 12 and 18 is 6.
What is the quotient when the least common multiple of 4 and 6 is divided by the greatest common factor of 4 and 6?
12/2 = 6
What is the greatest common multiple of 6 and 48?
The greatest common multiple of any set of integers 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.
Can you find the greatest common multiple of 6 and 15 explain?
The greatest common multiple of any set of integers is infinite and cannot be found.

There is no such thing as the Greatest Common Multiple. For any multiple calculated, you could add the LCM to get a higher number; essentially, the greatest common multiple of any set of numbers is infinite. The least common multiple of 12 and 18 is 36, The greatest comon factor of 12 and 18 is 6.
What is the greatest common multiple of 12 36 and 90?
The GCF is 6.
What is the Greatest common multiple of 33 and 6?
The Greatest common multiple of 33 and 6 is 3.
What is the quotient when the least common multiple of 4 and 6 is divided by the greatest common factor of 4 and 6?
12/2 = 6
What 2 numbers have a greatest common factor of 6 and a least common multiple of 36?
6 and 36 12 and 18
What are the two numbers that have a least common multiple of 36 and a greatest common factor of 6?
6 and 36
Two numbers that have 6 as the greatest common factor?
6 and 12, among others.==================6 and ANY multiple of 6.
What are the greatest common factor and the least common multiple of 12 and 18?
THe GCF and the LCM of 12 and 18 are 6 and 36 , respectively.
What is the greatest common multiple of 6 and 18?
There is no (Greatest Common Multiple) as this would be infinity.You can have Lowest Common Multiple (18 in this case), orGreatest Common Factor (6 in this case).
What is the least common multiple of 12 and 18 divided by their greatest common factor?
The LCM of 12 and 18 divided by their GCF is 36 divided by 6 = 6.
How do you know whether to use the greatest common factor or the least common multiple to solve a problem?
the least common multiple is what the numbers you are using divide into. e.g. 3 and 6 have 12 as the common factor. the greatest common factor is what divides into your numbers. 6 and 9 have 3 as the greatest common factor
What is the greatest common multiple of 5 and 6?
There is no greatest common multiple: for whatever value you say is the greatest I can always add their lowest common multiple and get an even greater common multiple.There is a greatest common FACTOR and a LOWEST common multiple:gcf(5, 6) = 1lcm(5, 6) = 30
