What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 15 and 58?

Answer

LCM of 15 and 58 is
870

First common multiples: 870; 1,740; 2,610; …

870 is divisible by both: 870 ÷ 15 = 58, 870 ÷ 58 = 15 — and 58 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 58 and of y/58 by 15.

15 and 58 are coprime (GCF = 1), so their LCM is simply the product: 15 × 58 = 870.

15 = 3 × 5

58 = 2 × 29
