Question

find the LMC of 18 and 27

Answer 1

which is the least common multiple

Answer 2

Least Common Multiple here is the smallest number that can get into both 18 and 27 which doesn't include the number 1.

Answer 3

Let's try 2.

18 / 2 = 9.

So 18 is a multiple of 2.

27 / 2 = 13.5

So 27 is not a multiple of 2.

Since 2 cannot get into 27, it is not the LCM of 18 and 27.

Answer 4

Let's try 3.

18 / 3 = 6

So 18 is a multiple of 3

27 / 3 = 9

So 27 is a multiple of 3

Since 3 can get into both 18 and 27, 3 is the LCM of 18 and 27.
