Find the least common multiple of 10 and 5

Answer 1

To find the least common multiple (LCM) of 10 and 5, we can list the multiples of each number:

Multiples of 10:
10, 20, 30, 40, 50, ...

Multiples of 5:
5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, ...

Now, we look for the smallest common multiple in both lists.

The smallest common multiple is 10.

Thus, the least common multiple of 10 and 5 is 10.
