What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 4, 10 and 14?

Answer

LCM of 4, 10 and 14 is
140

First common multiples: 140, 280, 420, …

140 is divisible by all three: 140 ÷ 4 = 35, 140 ÷ 10 = 14, 140 ÷ 14 = 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/4 by 35 and of y/10 by 14 and of z/14 by 10.

4 = 22

10 = 2 × 5

14 = 2 × 7
