Hello there! :)

To find the G.C.F. of 4, 10 and 12, we must list all of their factors:

4: 1, 2, 4,

10: 1, 2, 5, 10

12: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12

So 2 is the GCF of 4, 10 and 12.

Now for the LCM (Least Common Multiple)

4: 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40, 44, 48, 52, 56, 60

10: 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60

12: 12, 24, 36, 48, 60

And we are done!

So 60 is the LCM of those 3 numbers.

Hope this helps!
