What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 2, 5 and 7?
Answer
LCM of 2, 5 and 7 is
70
First common multiples: 70, 140, 210, …
70 is divisible by all three: 70 ÷ 2 = 35, 70 ÷ 5 = 14, 70 ÷ 7 = 10 — and 35, 14 and 10 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 35 and of y/5 by 14 and of z/7 by 10.
2 — prime
5 — prime
7 — prime
| Prime | 2 | 5 | 7 | Highest power |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2 | 2 | — | — | 2 |
| 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 = 2 × 5 × 7 = 70
