What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 10 and 235?

Answer

LCM of 10 and 235 is
470

First common multiples: 470; 940; 1,410; …

470 is divisible by both: 470 ÷ 10 = 47, 470 ÷ 235 = 2 — and 47 and 2 share no factor but 1, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/10 by 47 and of y/235 by 2.

10 = 2 × 5

235 = 5 × 47
