This is math not history.

A least common multiple (A.K.A LCM) is the smallest multiple that's divisible between two (or more)numbers.

So let's take 2 and 3 for an example. The smallest multiple that's divisible between 2 and 3 is 6.

Let's take 4 and 2 as an example. The smallest multiple that's divisible by 4 and 2, is 4.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

The greatest common factor (A.K.A GCF) is the biggest factor between 2 (or more) numbers.

Let's take 6 and 3 as an example.

The factors of 6 are 1, 2, 3, 6.

Factors of 3: 1, 3.

So the GCF is 3.

Let's take 8 and 20

20's factors: 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20

8's factors: 1, 2, 4, 8.

Therefore, the GCF is 4.

Your answer would most DEFINITELY be D., because it is already stated that "men", (all people), easily abuse the right of liberty and may not be given 100% trust, so the government must make sure to help protect the right from the selfishness of the people's use of that right. :)
