"Least Common Multiple" Calculator
What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 14 and 21?
Answer: LCM of 14 and 21 is 42
(Forty-two)
Finding LCM for 14 and 21 using GCF's of these numbers
The first method to find LCM for numbers 14 and 21 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:
LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF
GCF of numbers 14 and 21 is 7, so
LCM = (14 × 21) ÷ 7
LCM = 294 ÷ 7
LCM = 42
Finding LCM for 14 and 21 by Listing Multiples
The second method to find LCM for numbers 14 and 21 is to list out the common multiples for both nubmers and pick the first which matching:
Multiples of 14: 14, 28, 42, 56, 70
Multiples of 21: 21, 42, 63, 84
So the LCM for 14 and 21 is 42
Finding LCM for 14 and 21 by Prime Factorization
Another method to find LCM for numbers 14 and 21 is to list all Prime Factors for both numbers and multiply the highest exponent prime factors:
All Prime Factors of 14: 2, 7 (exponent form: 21, 71)
All Prime Factors of 21: 3, 7 (exponent form: 31, 71)
21 × 71 × 31 = 42
