The least common multiple.
The least common multiple - that's the smallest multiple that they all have in common
The smallest number that is a multiple of two or more numbers is called the least common multiple, or LCM.
It is the smallest number that is a multiple of all the numbers in the set. Or to put it another way, it is the smallest number divisible by all the numbers in the set.
The smallest number that is a multiple of two given numbers is called the least common multiple (LCM) of those two numbers. It can be found by taking the product of the two numbers and dividing it by their greatest common divisor (GCD).
That's the least common multiple, or LCM.
The least common multiple, or LCM.
The least common multiple (LCM) is the smallest multiple that is common to two or more numbers.Example: The LCM of 4 and 6 is 12, it is the smallest integer greater than zero that has both 4 and 6 as factors.Example: Take the numbers 7 and 2. There is no number smaller than 14 that you can divide by BOTH 7 and 2 and get an integer answer. (An integer is a whole number). Therefore, 14 is the LCM for 7 and 2.Sometimes, the LCM is one of the numbers itself. For example, the LCM of 4 and 8 is 8, because 8 is divisible by 4 and 8.The least common multiple, or LCM, is the smallest number that a set of given numbers will divide into evenly.The least (lowest) 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.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.
True. I think each and all mean the same thing in this context.
The Least Common Multiple (or Lowest Common Multiple) of a group of numbers, called the LCM, is the smallest number that's a multiple of all the numbers. For instance, the LCM of 16 and 20 is 80; 80 is the smallest number that's both a multiple of 16 and a multiple of 20.
The least common multiple of a set of numbers is the smallest number that all of the numbers in the set will divide into evenly.For example, look at the set LCM(2,3,4,5). The smallest number that they all divide into is 60. ■
You cannot find the least common multiple of a single number. The least common multiple of two numbers is the smallest number (not zero) that is a multiple of both
