  2. Least Common Multiples Goal: Find the LCM of 2 or more numbers You and your three friends go to lunch and find a deal on packages of 6 tacos.  You want to buy the minimum number of packages so you each get the same number of tacos and none are left over.  How many packages must you buy?

  3. How do we find LCMcopy steps 1stList the multiples of both numbers. 4: 4, 8,12,16, 20, 24, 28 6: 6,12,18, 24 2nd look for the smallest number they both have (LCM). 12 3RDEvaluate: to get 12 tacos I need to buy how many packages? 2 packages of tacos You and your three friends go to lunch and find a deal on packages of 6 tacos.  You want to buy the minimum number of packages so you each get the same number of tacos and none are left over.  How many packages must you buy? Goal: Find the LCM of 2 or more numbers
