These numbers are not relativly prime, (if they were you could just multiply them and get the answer) and one of them is not a factor of the other, (if it was, the larger number would be the answer,) so you have to make a chart
The multiples of 18 are 18, 36, 54, 72, 90, 108, 126, 144, 162, 180, 198, 216, 234, 252, and so on
The multiples of 28 are 28, 56, 84, 112, 140, 168, 196, 224, 252, and so on.
As you can see, 252 is the least common multiple, or LCM for short, of 18 and 28
252
252.
First, find the prime factorization of 28 and of 18:
28 = 22 x 7
18 = 2 x 32
To find the least common multiple, each prime factor must be taken the most number of times that it appears in either of the factorizations. Thus, the factor of 2 must be used twice (since 22) appears in the factorization for 28; the factor of 3 must be used twice (since 32) appears in the factorization of 18; and the factor of 7 must be used once (since 7 = 71) appears in the factorization of 28. So the least common multiple of 28 and 18 will be 22 x 32 x 7 = 252.
As another example, to find the least common multiple of 4200 and 8820:
4200 = 23 x 3 x 52 x 7
8820 = 22 x 32 x 5 x 72
So the least common multiple will be 23 x 32 x 52 x 72 = 88200.
The least common multiple of the numbers 28 and 22 is 308.
The least common multiple of two numbers is the product of the two numbers divided by their greatest common factor. The greatest common factor of 28 and 48 is 4. Therefore, the least common multiple is 28 x 48 ÷ 4 = 336.
The least common multiple (LCM) is often also called the lowest common multiple or smallest common multiple. Keep in mind that these different terms all refer to the same thing: the smallest positive integer which is a multiple of two or more numbers.The least common multiple of 16, 28, and 90 is 5040.
The least common multiple (LCM) is often also called the lowest common multiple or smallest common multiple. Keep in mind that these different terms all refer to the same thing: the smallest positive integer which is a multiple of two or more numbers.The least common multiple of 12, 21, and 28 is 84.
