The least common multiple of 2 and any other number will be

Even because 2 is the smallest possible multiple

Even because all multiples of 2 are even]

Odd because all numbers can be divided by 1

Either even or odd, it just depends on the other number

The least common multiple (LCM) of 2 and any other number will be:

Even because all multiples of 2 are even.

This is true because the LCM of any number and an even number (in this case, 2) will always include the even number, thereby ensuring that the LCM is also even.
