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.Besides, the word "common" implies that the multiple is common to two or more numbers. There is only one number in the question.

What is the greatest common factor of the numbers fiftysix and fiftyone?
The GCF is: 1
What is the greatest common multiple for 15 and 35?
There can be no greatest common multiple. If x were the greatest common multiple, then 2x would be a still greater common multiple. So x could not be the greatest. Thus there is no such thing as a greatest common multiple.
What is the greatest common multiple of 473 and 1000?
The greatest common multiple of any set of integers is infinite.
What is the greatest common multiple of 50 and 85?
The greatest common multiple of any set of integers is infinite.
What is the greatest common multiple of 39 and 35?
The greatest common multiple is infinitely large, the least common multiple is 1365, the greatest common factor is 1.
What is the greatest common multiple of 48 and 30?
There can never be a greatest common multiple. If a number, X, is claimed as the greatest common multiple, the 2X is a common multiple, and it is greater than X which contradicts X being the greatest.
What is the greatest common multiple of 3474and 26?
There is no greatest common multiple - whatever common multiple you come up with as the greatest one I can add their lowest common multiple (45162) and get an even higher multiple. There is a greatest common factor, which for 3474 and 26 is 2.
What is the greatest common multiple for 70 and 21?
The greatest common multiple is infinite.
What is the greatest common multiple of 29 and 23?
The greatest common multiple of any set of integers is infinite.
What is the greatest common multiple of 90 and 108?
The greatest common FACTOR of 90 and 108 is 18. The LEAST common multiple is 540. There can be no greatest common multiple since double that number will be a greater common multiple.
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 18 and 27?
The greatest common multiple of any set of numbers is infinite.
