What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 16, 18 and 45?
Answer
LCM of 16, 18 and 45 is
720
First common multiples: 720; 1,440; 2,160; …
720 is divisible by all three: 720 ÷ 16 = 45, 720 ÷ 18 = 40, 720 ÷ 45 = 16 — and 45, 40 and 16 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/16 by 45 and of y/18 by 40 and of z/45 by 16.
16 = 24
18 = 2 × 32
45 = 32 × 5
| Prime | 16 | 18 | 45 | Highest power |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2 | 24 | 2 | — | 24 |
| 3 | — | 32 | 32 | 32 |
| 5 | — | — | 5 | 5 |
— = power 0: the prime is not a factor of this number; the LCM takes it from the number that has it.
LCM = 24 × 32 × 5 = 720
