LCM for 15 and 147
What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 15 and 147?
(Seven hundred thirty-five)
Finding LCM for 15 and 147 using GCF's of these numbers
The first method to find LCM for numbers 15 and 147 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:
LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF
GCF of numbers 15 and 147 is 3, so
LCM = (15 × 147) ÷ 3
LCM = 2205 ÷ 3
LCM = 735
Finding LCM for 15 and 147 by Listing Multiples
