LCM for 12 and 19
What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 12 and 19?
(Two hundred twenty-eight)
Finding LCM for 12 and 19 using GCF's of these numbers
The first method to find LCM for numbers 12 and 19 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:
LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF
GCF of numbers 12 and 19 is 1, so
LCM = (12 × 19) ÷ 1
LCM = 228 ÷ 1
LCM = 228
Finding LCM for 12 and 19 by Listing Multiples
The second method to find LCM for numbers 12 and 19 is to list out the common multiples for both nubmers and pick the first which matching:
Multiples of 12: 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, 108, 120, 132, 144, 156, 168, 180, 192, 204, 216, 228, 240, 252
Multiples of 19: 19, 38, 57, 76, 95, 114, 133, 152, 171, 190, 209, 228, 247, 266
So the LCM for 12 and 19 is 228
Finding LCM for 12 and 19 by Prime Factorization
Another method to find LCM for numbers 12 and 19 is to list all Prime Factors for both numbers and multiply the highest exponent prime factors:
All Prime Factors of 12: 2, 2, 3 (exponent form: 22, 31)
All Prime Factors of 19: 19 (exponent form: 191)
22 × 31 × 191 = 228
