Definitions are hard to give tips on because there isn't a whole lot I could say that could help you remember what it is if you don't already know it. With that being said: Least common multiple - let's break it apart. "Least" - meaning "Smallest" "Common" - meaning "Shared" As for the word "Multiple" - here are some examples: Multiples of 5 are numbers like - 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, and so on. So what you're looking for is the smallest number that two numbers have in common.
