What is the lowest common multiple of 9, 24
Answered by Tammy
Done in a more standard way:
24 = 2*2*2*3
9 = 3*3

LCM = 2*2*2*3*3 = 72

To find the LCM of 24 and 9, we need to find the smallest multiple of both 24 and 9.

First, we can list the multiples of 24 and 9:

Multiples of 24: 24, 48, 72, 96, 120, 144, 168, 192, 216, 240, 264, 288, ...

Multiples of 9: 9, 18, 27, 36, 45, 54, 63, 72, 81, 90, 99, 108, ...

From this list, we can see that 72 is the smallest multiple that both 24 and 9 share (also known as the least common multiple or LCM).

Therefore,

LCM of 24 and 9 = 72
