What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 15 and 47?

Answer

LCM of 15 and 47 is
705

First common multiples: 705; 1,410; 2,115; …

705 is divisible by both: 705 ÷ 15 = 47, 705 ÷ 47 = 15 — and 47 and 15 share no factor but 1, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/15 by 47 and of y/47 by 15.

15 and 47 are coprime (GCF = 1), so their LCM is simply the product: 15 × 47 = 705.

15 = 3 × 5
