What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 27 and 39?

Answer

LCM of 27 and 39 is
351

First common multiples: 351; 702; 1,053; …

351 is divisible by both: 351 ÷ 27 = 13, 351 ÷ 39 = 9 — and 13 and 9 share no factor but 1, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/27 by 13 and of y/39 by 9.

27 = 33

39 = 3 × 13
