"Least Common Multiple of 3 Numbers" Calculator
What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 12, 22 and 40?
Answer
LCM of 12, 22 and 40 is
1,320
First common multiples: 1,320; 2,640; 3,960; …
1,320 is divisible by all three: 1,320 ÷ 12 = 110; 1,320 ÷ 22 = 60; 1,320 ÷ 40 = 33 — and 110, 60 and 33 have no factor but 1 common to all of them, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/12 by 110 and of y/22 by 60 and of z/40 by 33.
12 = 22 × 3
22 = 2 × 11
40 = 23 × 5
| Prime | 12 | 22 | 40 | Highest power |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2 | 22 | 2 | 23 | 23 |
| 3 | 3 | — | — | 3 |
| 5 | — | — | 5 | 5 |
| 11 | — | 11 | — | 11 |
— = power 0: the prime is not a factor of this number; the LCM takes it from the number that has it.
LCM = 23 × 3 × 5 × 11 = 1,320
