What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 22 and 38?

Answer

LCM of 22 and 38 is
418

First common multiples: 418; 836; 1,254; …

418 is divisible by both: 418 ÷ 22 = 19, 418 ÷ 38 = 11 — and 19 and 11 share no factor but 1, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/22 by 19 and of y/38 by 11.

22 = 2 × 11

38 = 2 × 19
