To find the least common multiple of 6 and 8, first start by listing a few multiples of each number.

First, let's start by listing the multiples of 6.

1 × 6 = 6

2 × 6 = 12

3 × 6 = 18

4 × 6 = 24

Next, let's list the multiples of 8.

1 × 8 = 8

2 × 8 = 16

3 × 8 = 24

We can stop here because all other multiples that we find will be greater than 24. Therefore, the least common multiple of 6 and 8 is 24.
