lcm(3,6,8)=24  3days=4320minutes  4320/24=180 times

$${lcm}\left(\mathrm{3},\mathrm{6},\mathrm{8}\right)=\mathrm{24} \\ $$$$\mathrm{3}{days}=\mathrm{4320}{minutes} \\ $$$$\mathrm{4320}/\mathrm{24}=\mathrm{180}\:{times} \\ $$

LCM = Least Common Multiple  ⇒ smallest common multiple of 2 or more integers

$$\mathrm{LCM}\:=\:\mathrm{Least}\:\mathrm{Common}\:\mathrm{Multiple} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\:\mathrm{smallest}\:\mathrm{common}\:\mathrm{multiple}\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{2}\:\mathrm{or}\:\mathrm{more}\:\mathrm{integers} \\ $$

8=2×2×2=2^3   6=2×3=2^1 ×3^1   3=3^1   for the lcm you need all prime  factors of the highest power,  in this case 2^3 ×3^1 =24  example: lcm(42,45,48)=5040  42=2^1 ×3^1 ×7^1   45=3^2 ×5^1   48=2^4 ×3^1   2^4 ×3^2 ×5^1 ×7^1 =5040    lcm of prime numbers p_1 , p_2 ...p_n =  =p_1 ×p_2 ×...×p_n   lcm(a,b) with a∣b is b  i.e.: lcm(7,21)=21; lcm(2,6,12)=12

$$\mathrm{8}=\mathrm{2}×\mathrm{2}×\mathrm{2}=\mathrm{2}^{\mathrm{3}} \\ $$$$\mathrm{6}=\mathrm{2}×\mathrm{3}=\mathrm{2}^{\mathrm{1}} ×\mathrm{3}^{\mathrm{1}} \\ $$$$\mathrm{3}=\mathrm{3}^{\mathrm{1}} \\ $$$$\mathrm{for}\:\mathrm{the}\:{lcm}\:\mathrm{you}\:\mathrm{need}\:\mathrm{all}\:\mathrm{prime} \\ $$$$\mathrm{factors}\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{highest}\:\mathrm{power}, \\ $$$$\mathrm{in}\:\mathrm{this}\:\mathrm{case}\:\mathrm{2}^{\mathrm{3}} ×\mathrm{3}^{\mathrm{1}} =\mathrm{24} \\ $$$$\mathrm{example}:\:{lcm}\left(\mathrm{42},\mathrm{45},\mathrm{48}\right)=\mathrm{5040} \\ $$$$\mathrm{42}=\mathrm{2}^{\mathrm{1}} ×\mathrm{3}^{\mathrm{1}} ×\mathrm{7}^{\mathrm{1}} \\ $$$$\mathrm{45}=\mathrm{3}^{\mathrm{2}} ×\mathrm{5}^{\mathrm{1}} \\ $$$$\mathrm{48}=\mathrm{2}^{\mathrm{4}} ×\mathrm{3}^{\mathrm{1}} \\ $$$$\mathrm{2}^{\mathrm{4}} ×\mathrm{3}^{\mathrm{2}} ×\mathrm{5}^{\mathrm{1}} ×\mathrm{7}^{\mathrm{1}} =\mathrm{5040} \\ $$$$ \\ $$$${lcm}\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{prime}\:\mathrm{numbers}\:{p}_{\mathrm{1}} ,\:{p}_{\mathrm{2}} ...{p}_{{n}} = \\ $$$$={p}_{\mathrm{1}} ×{p}_{\mathrm{2}} ×...×{p}_{{n}} \\ $$$${lcm}\left({a},{b}\right)\:\mathrm{with}\:{a}\mid{b}\:\mathrm{is}\:{b} \\ $$$$\mathrm{i}.\mathrm{e}.:\:{lcm}\left(\mathrm{7},\mathrm{21}\right)=\mathrm{21};\:{lcm}\left(\mathrm{2},\mathrm{6},\mathrm{12}\right)=\mathrm{12} \\ $$
