"Least Common Multiple of 3 Numbers" Calculator
What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 4, 10 and 20?
Answer
LCM of 4, 10 and 20 is
20
First common multiples: 20, 40, 60, …
20 is divisible by all three: 20 ÷ 4 = 5, 20 ÷ 10 = 2, 20 ÷ 20 = 1 — and 5, 2 and 1 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 5 and of y/10 by 2.
4 = 22
10 = 2 × 5
20 = 22 × 5
| Prime | 4 | 10 | 20 | Highest power |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2 | 22 | 2 | 22 | 22 |
| 5 | — | 5 | 5 | 5 |
— = power 0: the prime is not a factor of this number; the LCM takes it from the number that has it.
LCM = 22 × 5 = 20
