The least common multiple, or LCM, is the smallest positive integer that all the members of a given set of numbers will divide into evenly with no remainder.
Example: 30 and 42
Factor them.
2 x 3 x 5 = 30
2 x 3 x 7 = 42
Combine the factors, eliminating duplicates.
2 x 3 x 5 x 7 = 210, the LCM

What is the mean of the prime numbers that form the prime factorization of 270?
3.2
What is the prime numbers of 972?
I am not really sure what you mean but prime numbers but the prime factorization of 972 is 2x2x3x3x3x3x3
What does consecutive prime numbers mean?
2 and 3 are the only consecutive prime numbers.
Are 131741 prime numbers?
If you mean 13, 17 and 41 then they are all prime numbers
What is the prime numbers of 21?
Do you mean, "What is the prime factorization of 21?"
What mean relatively prime numbers?
Two numbers are considered relatively prime when their GCF is 1.
What does 'product of prime numbers' mean?
The multiplication answer of the prime numbers, so if you multiply them, the answer is called the product
How do you calculate prime numbers and what you mean by prime number?
Prime numbers have only two factors, one and themselves. The number 5 is prime.
What does give these numbers using prime factors mean?
Express them as a product of their prime factors; give the prime factorization. Example: 2 x 3 x 5 x 7 = 210
Is there an algorithm that yields only prime numbers?
What exactly do you mean "yields only prime numbers"? If you mean a formula that when given the numbers n=1, 2, 3, ... and so on generates the nth prime number (or a different prime number for each n) then no. If you mean an algorithm whereby a number can be tested to be a prime number then yes. (Using this prime_test algorithm, a simple algorithm can be written that would supply numbers one at a time to it and use its result to decide whether to yield the tested number or not, only yielding those numbers which pass the test.)
What is prime and composite numbers mean?
Prime numbers are numbers with only two factors. Composite numbers are numbers with more than two factors.
How do you get the mean using factors in math?
Factors cannot be used to get means. The mean of 3, 7 and 13 is (3+7+13)/3 = 23/3 = 72/3 The numbers whose mean was calculated (3, 7 and 13) were all prime numbers, there were a prime number of them (3), and their sum was prime (23). No factors in sight!
