$4$

Multiples of $2$ are ${2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,...}$

Multiples of $4$ are ${4,8,12,16,.......)$

Hence common multiples are ${4,8,12,16,...}$ and Lowest Common Multiple is $4$ .

$4$ is a multiple of both $2 and 4$

$4$ is a multiple of $2$ , so we do not need to look any further, because $4$ is a multiple of it self as well.

$4$ is the LCM of $2 and 4$
