The least common multiple is the smallest number that is multiple of two or more numbers.
5: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60, 65, 70, 75, 80, 85, 90, 95, 100, 105, 110, 115, 120
8: 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 72, 80, 88, 96, 104, 112, 120
12: 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, 108, 120
The LCM of 5, 8 and 12 is 120.
Intuitively, the LCM is the least multiple that is divisible by the integer(s).
To find the LCM of these integers, factor out each term and select the maximum exponent of the primes from the factorizations. Finally, multiply them out.
12 = 2² x 3
5 = 5
8 = 2³
So LCM = 2³ x 3 x 5 = 120

LCM of 8, 5 and 12 is 120...
LCM of 5 10 12 8 is 120.
The LCM is 120.
The LCM is 360.
lcm(8, 5, 12) = 120 8 = 2^3 5 = 5 12 = 2^2 x 3 lcm = 2^3 x 3 x 5 = 120
Least Common Multiple (LCM) for 5 90 12 8 is 360.
lcm(3, 5, 8, 4, 6, 12) = 120
LCM of 5, 8, 10, and 12. 5 = 5 8 = 23 10 = 2 x 5 12 = 23 x 3 LCM = 23 x 3 x 5 = 120 Or, since 5 is the only odd number, the LCM will end with 0. One of the multiples of 12 ending with 0 is 60 or 120. Since 60 is not divided evenly by 8, then 120 is the LCM.
The LCM is: 360
The LCM is 120.
The Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 12, 5, and 8 is 120.
