What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 16 and 38?

Answer

LCM of 16 and 38 is

304

First common multiples: 304, 608, 912, …

304 is divisible by both: 304 ÷ 16 = 19, 304 ÷ 38 = 8 — and 19 and 8 share no factor but 1, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/16 by 19 and of y/38 by 8.

16 = 2⁴

38 = 2 × 19

Prime	16	38	Highest power
2	2⁴	2	2⁴
19	—	19	19

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

LCM = 2⁴ × 19 = 304
