1. The problem is to find the least common multiple (LCM) of 2 and 3. 2. The LCM of two numbers is the smallest positive integer that is divisible by both numbers. 3. To find the LCM, list the multiples of each number: - Multiples of 2: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, ... - Multiples of 3: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, ... 4. The smallest common multiple in both lists is 6. 5. Therefore, the LCM of 2 and 3 is $6$.
