Its 8 because

4x2=8

That means your trying to find the number closest to one another so that means, the least common multiple of 8 and 4 is 8.

Hope this helps!

8

Explanation:

The least common multiple, or lcm, is simply the lowest number divisible by both numbers.  A simple way to find the lcm is by simply "counting by the number" a few times.

i.e.

4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24

8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48

Then, after looking at the list, you should see a few shared numbers.  The lowest of them is 8.

Hope it helps :) and let me know if you want me to elaborate.
