      Aram’s statement is incorrect. The correct answer is:

      24 is a common multiple, but not the least common multiple.

      Explanation: The least common multiple (LCM) of 4 and 6 is 12, not 24. The LCM is the smallest multiple that is common to both numbers. The multiples of 4 are 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, and the multiples of 6 are 6, 12, 18, 24. The smallest number that appears in both lists is 12.
