LCM for 144 and 160
What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 144 and 160?
Answer
(One thousand four hundred forty)
Finding LCM for 144 and 160 using GCF of these numbers
The first method to find LCM for numbers 144 and 160 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:
LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF
GCF of numbers 144 and 160 is 16, so
LCM = (144 × 160) ÷ 16
LCM = 23,040 ÷ 16
LCM = 1,440
Finding LCM for 144 and 160 by Listing Multiples
The second method to find LCM for numbers 144 and 160 is to list out the common multiples for both numbers and pick the first one that matches:
Multiples of 144: 144, 288, 432, 576, 720, 864, 1,008, 1,152, 1,296, 1,440, 1,584, 1,728
Multiples of 160: 160, 320, 480, 640, 800, 960, 1,120, 1,280, 1,440, 1,600, 1,760
So the LCM for 144 and 160 is 1,440
Finding LCM for 144 and 160 by Prime Factorization
