    What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 6, 18 and 27?

    Answer

    LCM of 6, 18 and 27 is
    54

    First common multiples: 54, 108, 162, …

    54 is divisible by all three: 54 ÷ 6 = 9, 54 ÷ 18 = 3, 54 ÷ 27 = 2 — and 9, 3 and 2 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 9 and of y/18 by 3 and of z/27 by 2.

    6 = 2 × 3

    18 = 2 × 32

    27 = 33

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

    LCM = 2 × 33 = 54
