SEE TO FIND LCM WE FIND COMMON FACTORS
12=2×2×3
16=2×2×2×2
24=2×2×2×3
LCM=COMMON FACTORS ×UNCOMMON FACTORS
COMMON FACTORS=2×2×2×3
UNCOMMON FACTORS=2
LCM=2×2×2×3×2=48
SO THE LCM IS 48

To find LCM , first we'll find prime factors of 12 , 16 and 24.
12 = 2 × 2 × 3
16 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2
24 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3
While finding LCM of three numbers, the factors common in two numbers is also included once , like here 3 is common factor of 12 and 24, but it isn't factor of 16.We will still write 3 once because it does make a pair of common factor.
LCM(12,16,24) = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 = 48
Answer → LCM(12,16,24) = 48
