...necessary to show how to find THE LEAST COMMON MULTIPLE. A multiple of several numbers is such a number as can be divided by each of them without a remainder. Thus, 12, 24, 36, 48, &c., are multiples of 2, 3, 4, and 6, since each of them is divisible by 2, 3, 4, and 6.... | |

...remainder. (Art. 160. Def. 8.) Hence, 173. A common multiple of two or more numbers, is a number which can be divided by each of them without a remainder. Thus, 12 is a common multiple of 2, 3, and 4; 15 is a common multiple of 3 and 5, &c. OBS. A common multiple is always a composite number,... | |
