Calculate the least common multiple (LCM) for these numbers:

$\boxed{9} ~~~ \boxed{4} ~~~ \boxed{6}$

To find the least common multiple (LCM) of the numbers 9, 4, and 6, use their prime factors:

Prime factors of 9: $9 = 3^2$

Prime factors of 4: $4 = 2^2$

Prime factors of 6: $6 = 2^1 \times 3^1$

The LCM is the product of the highest powers of all prime factors:

$2^2 \times 3^2 = 4 \times 9 = 36$
