What is the least common multiple (LCM) of 8 and 12?

24

Step-by-step explanation: To find the least common multiple or lcm of 8 and 12, begin by listing the first few multiples of each number.

I have listed the multiples for each number in the image attached.

Notice that I skipped 0 × 8 and 0 × 12 in our list of multiples.

That's because anything times 0 is 0 and our

least common multiple can't be 0.

Notice that both numbers share a 24 and that's

the first number they share.

When you find a number they have in common, you can stop. I just included one more number for 12 but you don't have to.

So the least common multiple of 8 and 12 is 24.

24

Step-by-step explanation:

Least common multiple (LCM) of 8 and 12 is 24.

This means the lowest number that both 8 and 12 can divide to give a whole number.

24 / 8= 3

24 / 12 = 2

The results 3 and 2 above are whole numbers

shift 4 units up, and 1 unit left.

it will translate f(x) = 3^x to g(x) = 3^(x+1) + 4
