What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 20 and 350?

Answer

LCM of 20 and 350 is
700

First common multiples: 700; 1,400; 2,100; …

700 is divisible by both: 700 ÷ 20 = 35, 700 ÷ 350 = 2 — and 35 and 2 share no factor but 1, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/20 by 35 and of y/350 by 2.

20 = 22 × 5

350 = 2 × 52 × 7
