What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 26 and 55?

Answer

LCM of 26 and 55 is 1,430

(One thousand, four hundred thirty)

Finding LCM for 26 and 55 using GCF of these numbers

The first method to find LCM for numbers 26 and 55 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:

LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF

GCF of numbers 26 and 55 is 1, so

LCM = (26 × 55) ÷ 1

LCM = 1430 ÷ 1

LCM = 1430

Finding LCM for 26 and 55 by Listing Multiples

The second method to find LCM for numbers 26 and 55 is to list out the common multiples for both numbers and pick the first one that matches:

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, 702, 728, 754, 780, 806, 832, 858, 884, 910, 936, 962, 988, 1014, 1040, 1066, 1092, 1118, 1144, 1170, 1196, 1222, 1248, 1274, 1300, 1326, 1352, 1378, 1404, 1430, 1456, 1482

Multiples of 55: 55, 110, 165, 220, 275, 330, 385, 440, 495, 550, 605, 660, 715, 770, 825, 880, 935, 990, 1045, 1100, 1155, 1210, 1265, 1320, 1375, 1430, 1485, 1540

So the LCM for 26 and 55 is 1430

Finding LCM for 26 and 55 by Prime Factorization

Another method to find LCM for numbers 26 and 55 is to list all Prime Factors for both numbers and multiply the highest exponent prime factors:

All Prime Factors of 26: 2, 13 (exponent form: 21, 131)

All Prime Factors of 55: 5, 11 (exponent form: 51, 111)

21 × 131 × 51 × 111 = 1430
