LCM for 125 and 250

The first method to find LCM for numbers 125 and 250 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:

LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF

GCF of numbers 125 and 250 is 125, so

LCM = (125 × 250) ÷ 125

LCM = 31250 ÷ 125

LCM = 250

The second method to find LCM for numbers 125 and 250 is to list out the common multiples for both nubmers and pick the first which matching:

Multiples of 125: 125, 250, 375, 500

Multiples of 250: 250, 500, 750, 1000, 1250, 1500, 1750, 2000, 2250, 2500, 2750, 3000, 3250, 3500, 3750, 4000, 4250, 4500, 4750, 5000, 5250, 5500, 5750, 6000, 6250, 6500, 6750, 7000, 7250, 7500, 7750,
