The same as with two. Factor them. Example: 30, 42 and 54.
2 x 3 x 5 = 30
2 x 3 x 7 = 42
2 x 3 x 3 x 3 = 54
Combine the factors, eliminating duplicates.
2 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 5 x 7 = 1890, the LCM.
LCM of 8, 12, 18 = 72Prime factorization of:8 = 2 * 2 * 212=2 * 2......* 318=2 ..........* 3 * 3=============LCM=2*2 * 2 * 3 *3 = 72
This does not work when one of the numbers is negative.
The LCM, or Least Common Multiple, of two numbers is the smallest number that is a multiple of both numbers. To find the LCM of 125 and 15, we first need to find the prime factors of each number. 125 = 5^3 and 15 = 3 * 5. The LCM is the product of the highest power of each prime factor that appears in either number, so LCM(125, 15) = 5^3 * 3 = 375.
The product of the GCF and the LCM is the same as the product of the original two numbers. Divide the product of the original numbers by the GCF. The result will be the LCM.
3, 7, 9
Two or more numbers are needed to solve for HCF or LCM.
LCM of 8, 12, 18 = 72Prime factorization of:8 = 2 * 2 * 212=2 * 2......* 318=2 ..........* 3 * 3=============LCM=2*2 * 2 * 3 *3 = 72
LCM is the multiple of the highest power of prime factors of two or more numbers. Since prime numbers have no other factors than themselves, the LCM of two or more prime numbers is their product. As an example, the LCM of 3, 5, and 53 is 3 x 5 x 53 = 795.
First you Prime Factorize the two (or more) numbers. The LCM of the two (or more) numbers must contain all the prime factors of the two (or more) numbers that made it. To find the LOWEST common multiple, for each prime factor, find from one of the numbers where the prime factor has the highest power. The highest powers of each prime multiply together to form the LCM of the numbers. e.g. LCM of 36 and 24 36 = (2^2)(3^2) 24 = (2^3)3 LCM = (2^3)(3^2) = 72
Do the numbers first. The LCM of 6 and 8 is 24. Choose the highest of the powers. The LCM is 24a^3
In these types of problems, the numbers can also be the answer. 3 and 30 have a GCF of 3 and an LCM of 30. Since the product of the GCF and LCM of two numbers is the same as the product of the numbers, you could also use another factor pair of 90, like 6 and 15.
You need at least two numbers to find an LCM.
Two or more numbers are needed to find their LCM but if you mean 7, 3 and 5 then it is 105
it doesnt work becasue 2 and 3 are low numbers it will only work if you go into the negatives.
This does not work when one of the numbers is negative.
The LCM of these numbers is 39.
The LCM of 3 and 9 is 9.
