    What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 2, 10 and 12?

    Answer

    LCM of 2, 10 and 12 is
    60

    First common multiples: 60, 120, 180, …

    60 is divisible by all three: 60 ÷ 2 = 30, 60 ÷ 10 = 6, 60 ÷ 12 = 5 — and 30, 6 and 5 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/2 by 30 and of y/10 by 6 and of z/12 by 5.

    2 — prime

    10 = 2 × 5

    12 = 22 × 3

    — = power 0: the prime is not a factor of this number; the LCM takes it from the number that has it.

    LCM = 22 × 3 × 5 = 60

    What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 2, 10 and 12?

    LCM of 2, 10 and 12 is 60

    How to find the LCM of 2, 10 and 12 by prime factorization?

    Take every prime that appears in 2, 10 and 12 to the highest power it reaches in any one of them and multiply: 2² × 3 × 5 = 60.

    Can you get the LCM of 2, 10 and 12 two numbers at a time?

    Yes. The LCM of 2 and 10 is 10, and the LCM of 10 and 12 is 60 — the same answer, because the least common multiple is associative and does not depend on the order of the three numbers.

    Is 60 divisible by 2, 10 and 12?

    Yes, and by definition it is the smallest positive integer that is: 60 ÷ 2, 60 ÷ 10 and 60 ÷ 12 all come out whole. Any other common multiple of 2, 10 and 12 is a multiple of 60.
