The prime factorizations are: 5 3 * 3 * 2 2 * 5 Eliminating the common factors, we get 3 * 3 * 2 * 5 Simplifying gives us 90 The LCM of 5, 18, and 10 is 90.
Since 13 is a prime number, and 18 is the LCM of 9 and 18, then 13*18 = 234 is the LCM of 13, 9, and 18.
To find the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 6, 9, and 36, we first need to factor each number into its prime factors. The prime factorization of 6 is 2 x 3, the prime factorization of 9 is 3 x 3, and the prime factorization of 36 is 2 x 2 x 3 x 3. To find the LCM, we take the highest power of each prime factor that appears in any of the numbers: 2^2 x 3^2 = 36. Therefore, the LCM of 6, 9, and 36 is 36.
If you want to find the LCM of two numbers, you first need to break those numbers down into their prime factors: 27=3x3x3 18=3x3x2 The next step is to discard the duplicate entries of any common prime factors. In this case, both numbers have two 3s in their prime factors, so we can discard 2 of these, leaving us with 3,3,3 and 2. Multiply all these together for the LCM: 3x3x3x2 = 54 So the lowest common multiple of 27 and 18 is 54.
The LCM is 18.
