The least common multiple is the smallest number that two or more numbers will divide into evenly. So, the smallest number that both 9 and 15 are multiples of is 45.
This website has an explanation and a helpful way to find the least common multiple. You can also quiz yourself on it. Hope this helps!

The LCM of 9 and 15 is 45 since that is the smallest no. which can be divided by both 9 and 15 without leaving a remainder.
The no. 3 is the GCF (greatest common factor) as 3 is the largest no. which would divide 9 and 15 without leaving a remainder.

regulations LCM = GCD × uncommon components. No. a million = GCD × uncommon factor of No. a million No. 2 = GCD × uncommon factor of No. 2 and No. a million × No. 2 = GCD × LCM 9 = a million × 3 × 3 40 5 = a million × 3 × 3 × 5 = a million × 40 5 = 5 × 9 = 3 × 15 pair of numbers = 9 and 40 5 9 and 5 9 and 15 -----
