What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 26 and 48?

Answer: LCM of 26 and 48 is 624

(Six hundred twenty-four)

Finding LCM for 26 and 48 using GCF's of these numbers

The first method to find LCM for numbers 26 and 48 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:

LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF

GCF of numbers 26 and 48 is 2, so

LCM = (26 × 48) ÷ 2

LCM = 1248 ÷ 2

LCM = 624

Finding LCM for 26 and 48 by Listing Multiples

The second method to find LCM for numbers 26 and 48 is to list out the common multiples for both nubmers and pick the first which matching:

Multiples of 26: 26, 52, 78, 104, 130, 156, 182, 208, 234, 260, 286, 312, 338, 364, 390, 416, 442, 468, 494, 520, 546, 572, 598, 624, 650, 676

Multiples of 48: 48, 96, 144, 192, 240, 288, 336, 384, 432, 480, 528, 576, 624, 672, 720
