What are the common multiples of 59 and 37?
Common multiples of 59 and 37 are numbers that both 59 and 37 can be divided into evenly with no remainder.
To find the common multiples of 59 and 37, we compare the list of multiples of 59 with the list of multiples of 37 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 37, we multiply 37 by 1, 37 by 2, and so on like this:
37 x 1 = 37
37 x 2 = 74
37 x 3 = 111
37 x 4 = 148
...
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 37?"
2183, 4366, 6549, 8732, etc.
Since 2183 is the first number they have in common, 2183 is the least common multiple of 59 and 37.
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 2183 (the least common multiple), so you can continue the green list above with more common multiples of 59 and 37 by simply adding 2183 to the last number on the list.
