Question

Find the least common multiple (LCM) for the pair of numbers 6 and 18 ​

Answer 1

18

Explanation:

Since the question is asking for the least common multiple, you factor out the 6 in 18 and 6. This gives you 631 as the LCM because you have factored out 6 and this is the GCF because there are no more common factors between 3 and 1. Since 631 equals 18, 18 is the LCM

Answer 2

the lcm is 6

Explanation:

6 divided by 3 is 1

18 divided by 3 is 6

6 becomes 3 and 2
