What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 19 and 28?

Answer

LCM of 19 and 28 is
532

First common multiples: 532; 1,064; 1,596; …

532 is divisible by both: 532 ÷ 19 = 28, 532 ÷ 28 = 19 — and 28 and 19 share no factor but 1, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/19 by 28 and of y/28 by 19.

19 and 28 are coprime (GCF = 1), so their LCM is simply the product: 19 × 28 = 532.
