What are the Multiples of 1?
Let’s take a look at the first 10 multiples for each of these numbers, 108 and 1:
First 10 Multiples of 108: 108, 216, 324, 432, 540, 648, 756, 864, 972, 1080
First 10 Multiples of 1: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10
You can continue to list out the multiples of these numbers as long as needed to find a match. Once you do find a match, or several matches, the smallest of these matches would be the Least Common Multiple. For instance, the first matching multiple(s) of 108 and 1 are 108, 216, 324. Because 108 is the smallest, it is the least common multiple.
The LCM of 108 and 1 is 108.
