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.

Furthermore, the the word COMMON is an indication that the multiple is common to two or more numbers. You have only one number in the question!

What is the difference between the GCF and th GCM of 18 and 360?

-- The difference is that the 'GCF' is a well respected and very useful conceptin arithmetic, whereas there is no such thing as the 'GCM'.-- The Greatest Common Factor of 18 and 360 is 18 .-- There is no Greatest Common Multiple. If someone walks in with number thathe claims is the Greatest Common Multiple of 18 and 360, simply add 360 to itand you'll have a new common multiple that's greater than his number.-- The Least Common Multiple of 18 and 360 is 360 .-- The difference between the GCF and the LCM of 18 and 360 is 342 .


What are the greatest common factor and least common multiple of 18 and 360?

The GCF of 18 and 360 is 18 because it is a factor of 360. The LCM of 18 and 360 is 360 because it is a multiple of 18.

Can you find greatest common multiple of 72 and 120?

No. Nobody can. There's no such thing as the 'greatest common multiple'. If somebody brings you a number and tells you that it's the greatest common multiple of 72 and 120, just bring it to me. I'll add 360 to it and get a common multiple that's even greater.

What is the greatest common multiple of 72 and 180?

There is no greatest common multiple of two (or more) numbers: whatever number you come up with as the greatest common multiple I can always add their lowest common multiple to get an even higher common multiple. If you meant the LOWEST common multiple (the least number that both divide into with a remainder) then lcm(72, 180) = 360. If you meant the greatest common FACTOR (the greatest number that divides into both), then gcf(72, 180) = 36.
