What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 16, 20 and 28?
Answer
LCM of 16, 20 and 28 is
560
First common multiples: 560; 1,120; 1,680; …
560 is divisible by all three: 560 ÷ 16 = 35, 560 ÷ 20 = 28, 560 ÷ 28 = 20 — and 35, 28 and 20 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 35 and of y/20 by 28 and of z/28 by 20.
16 = 24
20 = 22 × 5
28 = 22 × 7
| Prime | 16 | 20 | 28 | Highest power |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2 | 24 | 22 | 22 | 24 |
| 5 | — | 5 | — | 5 |
| 7 | — | — | 7 | 7 |
— = power 0: the prime is not a factor of this number; the LCM takes it from the number that has it.
LCM = 24 × 5 × 7 = 560
