What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 5, 15 and 25?

Answer

LCM of 5, 15 and 25 is
75

First common multiples: 75, 150, 225, …

75 is divisible by all three: 75 ÷ 5 = 15, 75 ÷ 15 = 5, 75 ÷ 25 = 3 — and 15, 5 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/5 by 15 and of y/15 by 5 and of z/25 by 3.
