LCM for 16 and 248
What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 16 and 248?
(Four hundred ninety-six)
Finding LCM for 16 and 248 using GCF's of these numbers
The first method to find LCM for numbers 16 and 248 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:
LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF
GCF of numbers 16 and 248 is 8, so
LCM = (16 × 248) ÷ 8
LCM = 3968 ÷ 8
LCM = 496
