It's not necessary. Since 8 is a multiple of 2, it is automatically the LCM, bu tif you insist...
2 is a Prime number. Its only prime factor is itself.
2 x 2 x 2 = 8
Combine the factors, eliminating duplicates.
2 x 2 x 2 = 8, the LCM
the LCM of 42 and 126 using a prime factorization is 2 times 2 times 3
2 x 2 x 5 = 20 The LCM is 20wy.
The prime factorization of 4 is 2 x 2. It is not possible to find the LCM of a single number.
Prime factors of 50 are 2 and 52 in exponents Prime factors of 98 are 2 and 72 in exponents So it follows LCM is 2*52*72 = 2450
18 in pime exponents is 2*32 24 in prime exponents is 23*3 LCM: 23*32 = 72
That's a lot of extra work for this problem but here goes. 3 is already prime so it doesn't really have a factor tree or prime factorization. The prime factorization of 4 is 2 x 2 which looks like this in a factor tree.42,23 and 4 have no common prime factors, so the LCM is their product, 12
Since 22 is a multiple of 11, it is automatically the LCM of this problem.
Prime factorization of 33 = 3 x 11 Prime factorization of 26 = 2 x 13 Nothing is common in the prime factorization of both numbers so LCM is equal to their product. LCM(33, 26) = 858.
You need at least two numbers to find an LCM.
2 x 2 x 2 x 5 x 7 = 280
2 x 2 = 4 2 x 3 = 6 2 x 2 x 3 = 12, the LCM
LCM of 5, 20, 24 = 120The prime factorization of:5 = 5The prime factorization of 20=5 * 2 * 2The prime factorization of 24=..... 2 * 2 * 2 * 3The LCM=5 *2*2 * 2 * 3 = 120
