What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 23 and 97?

Answer: LCM of 23 and 97 is 2,231

(Two thousand, two hundred thirty-one)

Finding LCM for 23 and 97 using GCF's of these numbers

The first method to find LCM for numbers 23 and 97 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:

LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF

GCF of numbers 23 and 97 is 1, so

LCM = (23 × 97) ÷ 1

LCM = 2231 ÷ 1

LCM = 2231
