What does Stonehenge means?
Stonehenge: Near the town of Avebury in Wiltshire, England. Stonehenge is the most Iconic of British megalithic monuments. It stands in the center of Salisbury Plain, surrounded by a complex of cemeteries and ritual sites. Stonehenge (the central structure) is believed to date to around 2500 -2400 B.C., i.e. at the end of the Neolithic period and close to the beginning of the Bronze Age. The function of the monument is thought to have been spiritual, but the arrangement of the megaliths has also led people to suggest that the monument had possible astronomical uses, such as a calendar. Several hundreds years before the stonework that most people call 'Stonehenge' was built the site had seen use as a cremation cemetery, beginning around 3,000 BC (when a circular earthwork was constructed). To this surrounding work various elements were added, including the circuit of 56 'Aubrey Holes (set just inside the bank of the enclosure).Once the design was conceived the architectural plan was set up so that the stones sat astride the solar axis of midwinter and midsummer, and that is the only alignment to be found within the structure. Anyone who cares to think about how it was achieved will realize that placing the mirrored arrays either side of this axis was no mean feat of surveying - try and work out how they laid out a thirty-sided polygon ( the 30 uprights) so that a 'baseline' passed exactly between the stones. It took a lot care and forethought. Note that to do this exercise it's important to remember that the prehistoric surveyors set the centers of each inner face of the stones (regardless of width) against precise markers. Also work out how they set out the 10 uprights of the Trilithons and positioned the 4 'Station Stones' to frame the exact points of two opposing facets of an octagon. Not to mention they accurately laid out the large outer circle of 56 holes long before the central structure was build, think on that, if they could lay out 56 - they could lay out a regular heptagon, try doing that with just a 'compass and ruler (the equivalent t of a rope and peg). .well henje means a prehistoric structure so it probably means a prehistoric stone structure

What is the least common multiple of 4 8 and 56?
The LCM of 4, 8, and 56 is 6. Since 4 and 8 are factors of 56, 56 is the LCM of the set. The answer can be found by dividing the 3 numbers into their prime factors, in this case 4=2x2, 8=2x2x2, and 56=7x2x2x2. The lowest common multiple is the smallest number which has all of these prime factors in. That means it has to have two 2's in (from 4) three 2's in (from 8) and three 2's and a 7 from 56. In this case, all of the prime factors of 4 can be found in 8, and all of the prime factors of 8 are in 56, so the LCM (lowest common multiple) of these 3 is 56.
