Let us find the least common multiple of 12 and 16
Before we find the least common multiple of 12 and 16,see this link to understand what is meant by least common multiple.
Solution: The multiples of 12 are 24, 36, 48, 60, 84,....
The multiples of 16 are 32, 48, 64, 80
According to the list of multiples, 48 is the smallest number that is found in both the lists.
Therefore, 48 is the least common multiple of 12 and 16.I would also like to suggest you to see this link on how to find least common multiple.In this link you will be taught how to find the least common multiple of binomial and trinomial expresstions.
