What's the Lowest Common Multiple (LCM) of 7 and 8?
Least common multiple (LCM).
LCM is the smallest number that is common in all the given numbers multiples.
Multiples of the given numbers 7, 8 are,
Multiples of 7=7, 14, 21, 28, 35, 42, 49, 56, 63, 70
Multiples of 8=8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 72, 80
