LCM for 25 and 50
What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 25 and 50?
(Fifty)
Finding LCM for 25 and 50 using GCF's of these numbers
The first method to find LCM for numbers 25 and 50 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:
LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF
GCF of numbers 25 and 50 is 25, so
LCM = (25 × 50) ÷ 25
LCM = 1250 ÷ 25
LCM = 50
Finding LCM for 25 and 50 by Listing Multiples
The second method to find LCM for numbers 25 and 50 is to list out the common multiples for both nubmers and pick the first which matching:
Multiples of 25: 25, 50, 75, 100
