What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 25 and 65?

Answer

LCM of 25 and 65 is
325

First common multiples: 325, 650, 975, …

325 is divisible by both: 325 ÷ 25 = 13, 325 ÷ 65 = 5 — and 13 and 5 share no factor but 1, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/25 by 13 and of y/65 by 5.

25 = 52

65 = 5 × 13
