The smallest prime number, according to primality as defined by modern mathematicians, is 2. To be prime, a number must be divisible only by itself and 1. All other numbers are known as composites.
The Least Common Multiple (LCM) of some numbers is the smallest number that the numbers are factors of. Like the LCM of 3 and 4 is 12, because 12 is the smallest number that 3 and 4 are both factors for. Type some numbers into the box to the right, and this page will find the LCM of those numbers.
