    330

    The highest common factor of 55 and 66 is 11, so LCM = (55 × 66) ÷ 11 = 330.

  6. 6. What is the lowest common multiple (LCM) of 6 and 10?

    30

    The highest common factor of 6 and 10 is 2, so LCM = (6 × 10) ÷ 2 = 30.

  7. 7. What is the lowest common multiple (LCM) of 16 and 24?

    48

    The highest common factor of 16 and 24 is 8, so LCM = (16 × 24) ÷ 8 = 48.

  8. 8. What is the lowest common multiple (LCM) of 12 and 30?

    60

    The highest common factor of 12 and 30 is 6, so LCM = (12 × 30) ÷ 6 = 60.

  9. 9. What is the lowest common multiple (LCM) of 10 and 12?

    60

    The highest common factor of 10 and 12 is 2, so LCM = (10 × 12) ÷ 2 = 60.

  10. 10. What is the lowest common multiple (LCM) of 12 and 20?

    60

    The highest common factor of 12 and 20 is 4, so LCM = (12 × 20) ÷ 4 = 60.

  11. 11. What is the lowest common multiple (LCM) of 4 and 10?

    20

    The highest common factor of 4 and 10 is 2, so LCM = (4 × 10) ÷ 2 = 20.

  12. 12. What is the lowest common multiple (LCM) of 15 and 25?
