The least common multiple is a number containing all of the factors of these numbers.
6 = 2*3
16 = 2⁴
44 = 2²*11

The least common multiple must have factors 2⁴*3*11 = 528

Prime Factorization Method (2):

2 | 6, 16, 44
2 | 3, 8, 22
2 | 3, 4, 11
2 | 3, 2, 11
3 | 3, 1, 11
11| 1, 1, 11
1 | 1, 1, 1

The LCM = 2^4 * 3 * 11 = 528
