Answer: LCM of 105 and 231 is 1,155

(One thousand, one hundred fifty-five)

Finding LCM for 105 and 231 using GCF's of these numbers

The first method to find LCM for numbers 105 and 231 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:

LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF

GCF of numbers 105 and 231 is 21, so

LCM = (105 × 231) ÷ 21

LCM = 24255 ÷ 21

LCM = 1155
