LCM for 20 and 35

What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 20 and 35?

Answer: LCM of 20 and 35 is 140

(One hundred forty)

Finding LCM for 20 and 35 using GCF's of these numbers

The first method to find LCM for numbers 20 and 35 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:

LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF

GCF of numbers 20 and 35 is 5, so

LCM = (20 × 35) ÷ 5

LCM = 700 ÷ 5

LCM = 140

Finding LCM for 20 and 35 by Listing Multiples

The second method to find LCM for numbers 20 and 35 is to list out the common multiples for both nubmers and pick the first which matching:

Multiples of 20: 20, 40, 60, 80, 100, 120, 140, 160, 180

Multiples of 35: 35, 70, 105, 140, 175, 210

So the LCM for 20 and 35 is 140

Finding LCM for 20 and 35 by Prime Factorization

Another method to find LCM for numbers 20 and 35 is to list all Prime Factors for both numbers and multiply the highest exponent prime factors:

All Prime Factors of 20: 2, 2, 5 (exponent form: 22, 51)

All Prime Factors of 35: 5, 7 (exponent form: 51, 71)

22 × 51 × 71 = 140
