What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 26 and 45?
Answer
LCM of 26 and 45 is
1,170
First common multiples: 1,170; 2,340; 3,510; …
1,170 is divisible by both: 1,170 ÷ 26 = 45; 1,170 ÷ 45 = 26 — and 45 and 26 share no factor but 1, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/26 by 45 and of y/45 by 26.
26 and 45 are coprime (GCF = 1), so their LCM is simply the product: 26 × 45 = 1,170.
26 = 2 × 13
45 = 32 × 5
| Prime | 26 | 45 | Highest power |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 | 2 | — | 2 |
| 3 | — | 32 | 32 |
| 5 | — | 5 | 5 |
| 13 | 13 | — | 13 |
— = power 0: the prime is not a factor of this number; the LCM takes it from the number that has it.
LCM = 2 × 32 × 5 × 13 = 1,170
