What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 16 and 23?

Answer

LCM of 16 and 23 is

368

First common multiples: 368; 736; 1,104; …

368 is divisible by both: 368 ÷ 16 = 23, 368 ÷ 23 = 16 — and 23 and 16 share no factor but 1, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/16 by 23 and of y/23 by 16.

16 and 23 are coprime (GCF = 1), so their LCM is simply the product: 16 × 23 = 368.

16 = 2⁴

23 — prime

Prime	16	23	Highest power
2	2⁴	—	2⁴
23	—	23	23

— = power 0: the prime is not a factor of this number; the LCM takes it from the number that has it.

LCM = 2⁴ × 23 = 368
