Factor both numbers and look for unique non repeated factors.
Multiply the unique non repeated factors to find the Least Common Multiple
10=2×5
8=2×2×2
There are three unique factors of 2. 10 has 1 8 has 3 so the 1 factor of 2 in 10 is repeated in the 3 factors of 2 in 8 .
There is 1 factor of 5 so
The Least Common Factor =2×2×2×5=40
