LCM stands for the lowest common multiple, so what are the smallest 2/more numbers that can be multiplied to give you your big number. For example the LCM of 3 and 5 will be 15 since that is the smallest number that is present in the 5 times table and the 3 times table.

Hope this helps!

LCM stands for Lowest Common Multiple- the LCM of two numbers is the smallest number that both of the original numbers divide!

LCM stands for Lowest Common Multiple.

It is the lowest number that can be a multiple of a set of given numbers.

For example: If you are given a set of numbers 10, 20, 40

Some common multiples of this set are: 40, 80, 120

10 (10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80...)

20 (20, 40, 60, 80, 100, 120...)

40 (40, 80, 120, 160, 200...)

Therefore, the Lowest common multiple would be 40

Hope this helped :)

LCM is the term used for 'Lowest Common Multiple'

This term is used when you are searching for a number that can be divisible by the two numbers in the question.

For example,

What is the LCM of 8 and 12?

The answer would be 24 because this is the lowest number in both times tables.

8, 16, 24, 32

12, 24, 36, 48

Least common multiple

LCM is the method to find the smallest possible multiple of two or more numbers. LCM stands for Least common multiple. LCM of two numbers is divisible by both numbers. For example, the LCM of 6 and 8 is 24. Hence 24 is divisible by both 6 and 8

LCM is the lowest common multiple which is the smallest possible number that can be divided by all given numbers. For example the LCM of 12 and 18 is 36 because 36 is the smallest positive number that is divisible by both 12 and 18. Another example is the LCM of 12, 15 and 75 is 300 because like above 300 is the smallest positive number that is divisible by all three numbers.

LCM (Lowest Common Multiple) is the method to work out the smallest multiple for two integers eg. LCM of 6 and 18 would be 36.

Lowest Common Multiple. This means the smallest number that is a multiple of 2 or more numbers. For example, the LCM of 20 and 30 is 60. If we look at the 20 times table: 20, 30, 60, 80, 100.... and then the 30 times table: 30, 60, 90, 120, 150... the first number that appears in both the 20 and 30 times table is known as the LCM. In this case, 60.

LCM stands for Least common multiple, which is the method to find the smallest multiple of two or more numbers.

LCM stands for the Lowest Common Multiple.

This represents the smallest positive integer that is a multiple of two different numbers being considered.

If we were to ask what is the lowest common multiple of 6 and 10. We start off by listing the multiples of each of those numbers:

Number Six - 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36,... (we just increase by 6 each time)

Number Ten - 10, 20, 30, 40, 50,...(we just increase by 10 each time)

So we are looking for the smallest multiple of both numbers. Well we can see the only multiple that these two numbers share is 30, so 30 is the LCM of both 6 and 10.

The lowest common multiple.

The smallest number that is the product of 2 or more numbers. In other words, the smallest number that can be found in the times table of 2 or more numbers.

LCM is the way to find the smallest possible multiple of two or more numbers. The lowest number that can divide two numbers. LCM stands for Lowest Common Multiple. LCM of two numbers is divisible by both numbers. For example, the LCM of 3 and 4 is 12. Hence 12 is divisible by both 3 and 4.

Least Common Multiple

LCM means Lowest Common Multiple.

Multiple is another way of saying the numbers in the times table of a number.

So Lowest Common Multiple is the smallest number that would be in the times table list of 2 different numbers.

LCM = Least Common Multiple

Take the multiples of 3 and 6 for example.

3: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18...

6: 6, 12, 18, 24, 30...

6, 12 and 18 are common multiples of 3 and 6. However 6, is the least common multiple
