Question

What is the lcm of 8,4,4,2and3

Answer 1

[AI-generated answer — Bot]

To find the LCM (Least Common Multiple) of these numbers, we need to factor each number into its prime factors:

8 = 2 x 2 x 2
4 = 2 x 2
4 = 2 x 2
2 = 2
3 = 3

Next, we take each prime factor to its highest power. In this case, the prime factors are 2 and 3, and their highest powers are:

2³ x 3 = 24

Therefore, the LCM of 8, 4, 4, 2, and 3 is 24.
