    What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 6, 18 and 20?

    Answer

    LCM of 6, 18 and 20 is
    180

    First common multiples: 180, 360, 540, …

    180 is divisible by all three: 180 ÷ 6 = 30, 180 ÷ 18 = 10, 180 ÷ 20 = 9 — and 30, 10 and 9 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/6 by 30 and of y/18 by 10 and of z/20 by 9.

    6 = 2 × 3

    18 = 2 × 32

    20 = 22 × 5

    — = power 0: the prime is not a factor of this number; the LCM takes it from the number that has it.

    LCM = 22 × 32 × 5 = 180
