What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 250 and 300?

Answer

LCM of 250 and 300 is
1,500

(One thousand five hundred)

Finding LCM for 250 and 300 using GCF of these numbers

The first method to find LCM for numbers 250 and 300 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:

LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF

GCF of numbers 250 and 300 is 50, so

LCM = (250 × 300) ÷ 50

LCM = 75,000 ÷ 50

LCM = 1,500

Finding LCM for 250 and 300 by Listing Multiples

The second method to find LCM for numbers 250 and 300 is to list out the common multiples for both numbers and pick the first one that matches:

Multiples of 250: 250, 500, 750, 1,000, 1,250, 1,500, 1,750, 2,000

Multiples of 300: 300, 600, 900, 1,200, 1,500, 1,800, 2,100

So the LCM for 250 and 300 is 1,500

Finding LCM for 250 and 300 by Prime Factorization

Another method to find LCM for numbers 250 and 300 is to list all Prime Factors for both numbers and multiply the highest exponent prime factors:

All Prime Factors of 250: 2, 5, 5, 5 (exponent form: 21, 53)

All Prime Factors of 300: 2, 2, 3, 5, 5 (exponent form: 22, 31, 52)

22 × 53 × 31 = 1,500
