LCM for 14 and 9

What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 14 and 9?

Answer: LCM of 14 and 9 is 126

(One hundred twenty-six)

Finding LCM for 14 and 9 using GCF's of these numbers

The first method to find LCM for numbers 14 and 9 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:

LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF

GCF of numbers 14 and 9 is 1, so

LCM = (14 × 9) ÷ 1

LCM = 126 ÷ 1

LCM = 126

Finding LCM for 14 and 9 by Listing Multiples

The second method to find LCM for numbers 14 and 9 is to list out the common multiples for both nubmers and pick the first which matching:

Multiples of 14: 14, 28, 42, 56, 70, 84, 98, 112, 126, 140, 154

Multiples of 9: 9, 18, 27, 36, 45, 54, 63, 72, 81, 90, 99, 108, 117, 126, 135, 144

So the LCM for 14 and 9 is 126

Finding LCM for 14 and 9 by Prime Factorization

Another method to find LCM for numbers 14 and 9 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 9: 3, 3 (exponent form: 32)

21 × 71 × 32 = 126
