Respuesta :
The least common multiple is the littlest multiple that two or more numbers have in common (e.g 12 for 2, 3, 4 and 6).
A. 12, 24, 36, 48, 60; 15, 30, 45, 60
B. 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54, 60; 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60
C. 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54, 60; 15, 30, 45, 60
D. 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54, 60; 12, 24, 36, 45, 60
The answer is A.
A. 12, 24, 36, 48, 60; 15, 30, 45, 60
B. 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54, 60; 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60
C. 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54, 60; 15, 30, 45, 60
D. 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54, 60; 12, 24, 36, 45, 60
The answer is A.
The correct choice is A, since 12 and 15 are the numbers that need the least multiplication to reach 60.
To determine which two numbers have a least common multiple of 60, you must determine by how much each number must be multiplied to get to 60:
- A = 9
- 60/12 = 5
- 60/15 = 4
- B = 16
- 60/6 = 10
- 60/10 = 6
- C = 14
- 60/6 = 10
- 60/15 = 4
- D = 15
- 60/6 = 10
- 60/12 = 5
Therefore, the correct choice is A, since 12 and 15 are the numbers that need the least multiplication to reach 60.
