Answer:

60

Explanation:

The highest common multiple or GCF of any two numbers is the largest factor that both numbers share. For instance,

The multiples of 12 are as follows:

1 and 12

3 and 4

2 and 6

The Multiples of 30 are as follows:

1 and 30

2 and 15

5 and 6

The factor that these two numbers share is 6, so therefore, your GCF is 6

To find the greatest common multiple, we need to know what number both 12 and 30 have in common which is 60 since:

30 can be multiplied by 2 to get 60

12 can be multplied by 5 to get 60

Hope this Helps!
