Answer:
The number we seek is the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 6,8,10 and 12 . This can be done a number of ways, but the easiest is to look at prime factors:
6=2×3
8=23
10=2×5
12=22×3
Find the maximum number of occurrences of each prime factor across our set (this is also called the multiplicity of the factors).
6=2×3
8=23
10=2×5
12=22×3
Thus, our LCM is
23×3×5=120
