What are the common multiples of 59 and 34?

Common multiples of 59 and 34 are numbers that both 59 and 34 can be divided into evenly with no remainder.

To find the common multiples of 59 and 34, we compare the list of multiples of 59 with the list of multiples of 34 to see what they have in common.

To create a list of multiples of 59, we multiply 59 by 1, 59 by 2, and so on like this:

59 x 1 = 59
59 x 2 = 118
59 x 3 = 177
59 x 4 = 236
...

Similarly, to create a list of multiples of 34, we multiply 34 by 1, 34 by 2, and so on like this:

34 x 1 = 34
34 x 2 = 68
34 x 3 = 102
34 x 4 = 136
...

When we compare the two lists to see what they have in common, we get the answer to "What are the common multiples of 59 and 34?"

2006, 4012, 6018, 8024, etc.

Since 2006 is the first number they have in common, 2006 is the least common multiple of 59 and 34.

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 2006 (the least common multiple), so you can continue the green list above with more common multiples of 59 and 34 by simply adding 2006 to the last number on the list.
