Finding LCM for 120 and 210 using GCF's of these numbers

The first method to find LCM for numbers 120 and 210 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:

LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF

GCF of numbers 120 and 210 is 30, so

LCM = (120 × 210) ÷ 30

LCM = 25200 ÷ 30

LCM = 840

Finding LCM for 120 and 210 by Listing Multiples
