Example: 30 and 42
Factor them.
2 x 3 x 5 = 30
2 x 3 x 7 = 42
Select the common factors.
2 x 3 = 6, the GCF
You need at least two numbers to find an LCM no matter what you use.
The prime factorization of 4 is 2 x 2. It is not possible to find the LCM of a single number.
The LCM of 36 and 63 is 252. To find the LCM, find the prime factorization of both numbers. The prime factorization of 36 is 3*3*2*2 The prime factorization of 63 is 3*3*7 3*3*2*2*7=252
The LCM of the given two numbers is 48
To find the least common multiple (LCM) of two numbers, you first need to find the prime factorization of each number. The prime factorization of 275 is 5 x 5 x 11, and the prime factorization of 605 is 5 x 11 x 11. To find the LCM, you take the highest power of each prime factor that appears in either factorization: 5^2 x 11^2 = 3025. Therefore, the LCM of 275 and 605 is 3025.
The LCM of the given three numbers using prime factorization is 25200
You have written the prime factorization for 432. You need at least two numbers to find an LCM.
Prime factorization.
You need at least two numbers to find an LCM no matter what you use.
You can find the GCF and/or the LCM of a set of numbers by comparing the prime factorizations of the individual members of the set.
You need at least two numbers to find an LCM no matter what method you choose.
The prime factorization of 4 is 2 x 2. It is not possible to find the LCM of a single number.
You need at least two numbers to find an LCM.
Draw the prime factorization table and put both the numbers on it. Find common prime factors and divide both of them writing the products down. Do this until the quotients are either 1 or any prime number. Write down all the factors used and it will be the prime factorization. Multiply them and you will find the LCM of the numbers. Here, 18,21 6,7...................(/3) Prime factorization=6*7*3 LCM=42*3=126
It doesn't matter which method you use. You still need at least two numbers to find an LCM. There is no LCM of 20.
The LCM of these numbers is 740. LCM is Least Common Multiple.
To find the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 5, 25, and 125, we need to first find the prime factorization of each number. The prime factorization of 5 is 5, the prime factorization of 25 is 5^2, and the prime factorization of 125 is 5^3. The LCM is the product of the highest power of each prime factor that appears in any of the numbers, which in this case is 5^3, equaling 125. Therefore, the LCM of 5, 25, and 125 is 125.
