How do you find the least common multiple of 2 numbers? preferably using the ladder method

Hi,
Sorry, I don't use the ladder method, but I can show you how to find the least common multiple of 2 numbers using a different method:
Let's say we are finding the least common multiple of 3 and 9:

3: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18
            --

9: 9, 18, 27, 36, 45, 54
    --

All I did was list multiples of both the numbers till I found one that was common (however, in the example above, I listed a few extra)

Hope this helped 
:)

A)26•2=52there are 2 sides with the same length116-52=64the other 2 side have to be half of 64 each64/2=32the width is 32b)make two sentences about these steps because your teacher knows how you write and explain things.
