$72$
💡 Explanation:
Taking out the factors of the given numbers,
$12 = 2 \times 2 \times 3$
$24 = 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 3 $
$ 36 = 2 \times 2 \times 3 \times 3$
$\therefore $ LCM of $12,24$ and $36$ $= 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 3 \times 3 = 72$
$24 = 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 3 $
$ 36 = 2 \times 2 \times 3 \times 3$
$\therefore $ LCM of $12,24$ and $36$ $= 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 3 \times 3 = 72$
