What are the common multiples of 79 and 57?

Common multiples of 79 and 57 are numbers that both 79 and 57 can be divided into evenly with no remainder.

To find the common multiples of 79 and 57, we compare the list of multiples of 79 with the list of multiples of 57 to see what they have in common.

To create a list of multiples of 79, we multiply 79 by 1, 79 by 2, and so on like this:

79 x 1 = 79
79 x 2 = 158
79 x 3 = 237
79 x 4 = 316
...

Similarly, to create a list of multiples of 57, we multiply 57 by 1, 57 by 2, and so on like this:

57 x 1 = 57
57 x 2 = 114
57 x 3 = 171
57 x 4 = 228
...

When we compare the two lists to see what they have in common, we get the answer to "What are the common multiples of 79 and 57?"

4503, 9006, 13509, 18012, etc.

Since 4503 is the first number they have in common, 4503 is the least common multiple of 79 and 57.

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 4503 (the least common multiple), so you can continue the green list above with more common multiples of 79 and 57 by simply adding 4503 to the last number on the list.
