Common Multiples
Common multiple are the multiples which are common in two or more numbers. In other words, common multiple are numbers that appear in a list of multiples for two or more distinct numbers.
Let’s take an example of the multiples of 2 and 3.
- Multiples of 2 are 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, and so on.
- Multiples of 3 are 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, and so on.
When we compare both lists, we can observe that the number 6 appears on both. So 6 is the first common multiple of 2 and 3.
