What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 25, 45 and 60?

Answer

LCM of 25, 45 and 60 is
900

First common multiples: 900; 1,800; 2,700; …

900 is divisible by all three: 900 ÷ 25 = 36, 900 ÷ 45 = 20, 900 ÷ 60 = 15 — and 36, 20 and 15 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/25 by 36 and of y/45 by 20 and of z/60 by 15.

25 = 52

45 = 32 × 5

60 = 22 × 3 × 5
