The first step in finding an LCM is to split the numbers into their prime factors. In this case we have:

244 = 2x2x61

88 = 2x2x2x11

The next step is to cross off any duplicates for common prime factors. In this case, both numbers have two 2s as prime factors. Crossing the duplicates off leaves us with 2, 2, 2, 11 and 61.

Multiply these together and we get 5,368

And thus the LCM of 244 and 88 is 5,368
