What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 24 and 64?

Answer

LCM of 24 and 64 is
192

First common multiples: 192, 384, 576, …

192 is divisible by both: 192 ÷ 24 = 8, 192 ÷ 64 = 3 — and 8 and 3 share no factor but 1, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/24 by 8 and of y/64 by 3.

24 = 23 × 3
