What are the common multiples of 39 and 8?

Common multiples of 39 and 8 are numbers that both 39 and 8 can be divided into evenly with no remainder.

To find the common multiples of 39 and 8, we compare the list of multiples of 39 with the list of multiples of 8 to see what they have in common.

To create a list of multiples of 39, we multiply 39 by 1, 39 by 2, and so on like this:

39 x 1 = 39
39 x 2 = 78
39 x 3 = 117
39 x 4 = 156
...

Similarly, to create a list of multiples of 8, we multiply 8 by 1, 8 by 2, and so on like this:

8 x 1 = 8
8 x 2 = 16
8 x 3 = 24
8 x 4 = 32
...

When we compare the two lists to see what they have in common, we get the answer to "What are the common multiples of 39 and 8?"

312, 624, 936, 1248, etc.

Since 312 is the first number they have in common, 312 is the least common multiple of 39 and 8.

Note: Our lists are shortened because they go on forever, but can you see the pattern when you look at the answer in green above? The common multiples are in intervals of 312 (the least common multiple), so you can continue the green list above with more common multiples of 39 and 8 by simply adding 312 to the last number on the list.
