What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 100 and 250?

Answer

LCM of 100 and 250 is 500

(Five hundred)

Finding LCM for 100 and 250 using GCF of these numbers

The first method to find LCM for numbers 100 and 250 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:

LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF

GCF of numbers 100 and 250 is 50, so

LCM = (100 × 250) ÷ 50

LCM = 25000 ÷ 50

LCM = 500

Finding LCM for 100 and 250 by Listing Multiples

The second method to find LCM for numbers 100 and 250 is to list out the common multiples for both numbers and pick the first one that matches:

Multiples of 100: 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700

Multiples of 250: 250, 500, 750, 1000

So the LCM for 100 and 250 is 500

Finding LCM for 100 and 250 by Prime Factorization

Another method to find LCM for numbers 100 and 250 is to list all Prime Factors for both numbers and multiply the highest exponent prime factors:

All Prime Factors of 100: 2, 2, 5, 5 (exponent form: 22, 52)

All Prime Factors of 250: 2, 5, 5, 5 (exponent form: 21, 53)

22 × 53 = 500
