When you go to stores and it advertises 25% off or something like that is a big one. tipping 15% or 20% is another application. a third would maybe be the interest you earn on a bank account??
F(2)=4+10-8=6; f(6)=36+30-8=58. Average rate of change is (58-6)/(6-2)=52/4=13
The least common multiplier of 18 and 24 is 72. Because all of 18's multipliers do not match up with 24's multipliers until 72, it is the LCM
