    What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 24, 36 and 48?

    Answer

    LCM of 24, 36 and 48 is
    144

    First common multiples: 144, 288, 432, …

    144 is divisible by all three: 144 ÷ 24 = 6, 144 ÷ 36 = 4, 144 ÷ 48 = 3 — and 6, 4 and 3 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/24 by 6 and of y/36 by 4 and of z/48 by 3.

    24 = 23 × 3

    36 = 22 × 32

    48 = 24 × 3
