I need help with my math .What is the least Common Multiple (LCM) for 6,4,and 8.?
please! show how you get the answer. cause, i got( 2,2,2) i'm not sure of myself at all. thank you!
another one problem i'm really confuse is the Write a 9- digit numeral with
3 in the hundredths place,
6 in the ten-thousands place,
4in the thousandths place,
5 in the hundred-thousands place,
2 in the ten place,and 0 in all other places. ---.---.---? please! help me..
LCM means the smallest number that each of those numbers will go into.
Look at the multiples of your numbers:
4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32
6, 12, 18, 24, 30
8, 16, 24, 32
What is the smallest number that is divisible by all three numbers?
For your second problem, study this chart.

To find the least common multiple (LCM) of 6, 4, and 8, follow these steps:
1. List the prime factors of each number:
- 6 = 2 * 3
- 4 = 2 * 2
- 8 = 2 * 2 * 2
2. Identify the highest power of each prime factor in any of the numbers:
- The highest power of 2 is 2^3 = 8.
- The highest power of 3 is 3^1 = 3.
3. Multiply these highest powers of prime factors together:
- LCM = 2^3 * 3^1 = 8 * 3 = 24.
So, the LCM of 6, 4, and 8 is 24.
Now, let's move on to the next problem:
To write a 9-digit numeral with specific digits in certain places, use the place value system. Since you mentioned the positions for each digit, we will fill in the remaining places with zero:
The 9-digit numeral:
__ __ __ __ __ __ __ __
Now, insert the given digits in their respective places:
3 in the hundredths place:
__ __ __ . __ __ __ __ __
6 in the ten-thousands place:
__ __ __ . 6 __ __ __ __
4 in the thousandths place:
__ 4 __ . 6 __ __ __ __
5 in the hundred-thousands place:
__ 4 __ . 6 __ 5 __ __
2 in the tens place:
__ 4 __ . 6 2 5 __ __
0 in all other places:
__ 4 __ . 6 2 5 __ 0 __
So, the 9-digit numeral with the given digits in the specified places is:
__ 4 __ . 6 2 5 __ 0 __.
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any further questions.
