What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 24 and 25?

Answer

LCM of 24 and 25 is
600

First common multiples: 600; 1,200; 1,800; …

600 is divisible by both: 600 ÷ 24 = 25, 600 ÷ 25 = 24 — and 25 and 24 share no factor but 1, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/24 by 25 and of y/25 by 24.

24 and 25 are coprime (GCF = 1), so their LCM is simply the product: 24 × 25 = 600.

24 = 23 × 3

25 = 52
