In his well known monograph [l] (p. 81) H. Bachmann indicates that two ordinal numbers > 1 always have a common left multiple > 1, but not always have a right multiple (RM). The monograph does not, however, contain any further analysis of right multiples. The purpose of the present note is to supplement this by formulating the following propositions which, despite their simplicity, seem not yet to be known.
