Find the least common multiple of 8 and 10

To find the least common multiple (LCM) of 8 and 10, we can list the multiples of each number and look for the first common multiple.

The multiples of 8 are: 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 72, 80, ...

The multiples of 10 are: 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, ...
