What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 25 and 31?

Answer

LCM of 25 and 31 is
775

First common multiples: 775; 1,550; 2,325; …

775 is divisible by both: 775 ÷ 25 = 31, 775 ÷ 31 = 25 — and 31 and 25 share no factor but 1, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/25 by 31 and of y/31 by 25.

25 and 31 are coprime (GCF = 1), so their LCM is simply the product: 25 × 31 = 775.

25 = 52
