(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
