What are the common multiples of 79 and 70?

Common multiples of 79 and 70 are numbers that both 79 and 70 can be divided into evenly with no remainder.

To find the common multiples of 79 and 70, we compare the list of multiples of 79 with the list of multiples of 70 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 70, we multiply 70 by 1, 70 by 2, and so on like this:

70 x 1 = 70
70 x 2 = 140
70 x 3 = 210
70 x 4 = 280
...

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 70?"

5530, 11060, 16590, 22120, etc.

Since 5530 is the first number they have in common, 5530 is the least common multiple of 79 and 70.

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 5530 (the least common multiple), so you can continue the green list above with more common multiples of 79 and 70 by simply adding 5530 to the last number on the list.
