What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 140 and 180?

Answer: LCM of 140 and 180 is 1,260

(One thousand, two hundred sixty)

Finding LCM for 140 and 180 using GCF's of these numbers

The first method to find LCM for numbers 140 and 180 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:

LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF

GCF of numbers 140 and 180 is 20, so

LCM = (140 × 180) ÷ 20

LCM = 25200 ÷ 20

LCM = 1260

Multiples of 140: 140, 280, 420, 560, 700, 840, 980, 1120, 1260, 1400, 1540

Multiples of 180: 180, 360, 540, 720, 900, 1080, 1260, 1440, 1620

So the LCM for 140 and 180 is 1260

Finding LCM for 140 and 180 by Prime Factorization

Another method to find LCM for numbers 140 and 180 is to list all Prime Factors for both numbers and multiply the highest exponent prime factors:

All Prime Factors of 140: 2, 2, 5, 7 (exponent form: 22, 51, 71)

All Prime Factors of 180: 2, 2, 3, 3, 5 (exponent form: 22, 32, 51)

22 × 51 × 71 × 32 = 1260
