LCM for 120 and 132

What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 120 and 132?

Answer: LCM of 120 and 132 is 1,320

(One thousand, three hundred twenty)

Finding LCM for 120 and 132 using GCF's of these numbers

The first method to find LCM for numbers 120 and 132 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:

LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF

GCF of numbers 120 and 132 is 12, so

LCM = (120 × 132) ÷ 12

LCM = 15840 ÷ 12

LCM = 1320

Finding LCM for 120 and 132 by Listing Multiples

The second method to find LCM for numbers 120 and 132 is to list out the common multiples for both nubmers and pick the first which matching:

Multiples of 120: 120, 240, 360, 480, 600, 720, 840, 960, 1080, 1200, 1320, 1440, 1560

Multiples of 132: 132, 264, 396, 528, 660, 792, 924, 1056, 1188, 1320, 1452, 1584

So the LCM for 120 and 132 is 1320

Finding LCM for 120 and 132 by Prime Factorization

Another method to find LCM for numbers 120 and 132 is to list all Prime Factors for both numbers and multiply the highest exponent prime factors:

All Prime Factors of 120: 2, 2, 2, 3, 5 (exponent form: 23, 31, 51)

All Prime Factors of 132: 2, 2, 3, 11 (exponent form: 22, 31, 111)

23 × 31 × 51 × 111 = 1320
