What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 13 and 21?

Answer: LCM of 13 and 21 is 273

(Two hundred seventy-three)

Finding LCM for 13 and 21 using GCF's of these numbers

The first method to find LCM for numbers 13 and 21 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:

LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF

GCF of numbers 13 and 21 is 1, so

LCM = (13 × 21) ÷ 1

LCM = 273 ÷ 1

LCM = 273

Finding LCM for 13 and 21 by Listing Multiples

The second method to find LCM for numbers 13 and 21 is to list out the common multiples for both nubmers and pick the first which matching:

Multiples of 13: 13, 26, 39, 52, 65, 78, 91, 104, 117, 130, 143, 156, 169, 182, 195, 208, 221, 234, 247, 260, 273, 286, 299

Multiples of 21: 21, 42, 63, 84, 105, 126, 147, 168, 189, 210, 231, 252, 273, 294, 315

So the LCM for 13 and 21 is 273

Finding LCM for 13 and 21 by Prime Factorization

Another method to find LCM for numbers 13 and 21 is to list all Prime Factors for both numbers and multiply the highest exponent prime factors:

All Prime Factors of 13: 13 (exponent form: 131)

All Prime Factors of 21: 3, 7 (exponent form: 31, 71)

131 × 31 × 71 = 273
