What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 24 and 57?

Answer

LCM of 24 and 57 is
456

First common multiples: 456; 912; 1,368; …

456 is divisible by both: 456 ÷ 24 = 19, 456 ÷ 57 = 8 — and 19 and 8 share no factor but 1, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/24 by 19 and of y/57 by 8.

24 = 23 × 3

57 = 3 × 19
