LCM for 28 and 41
What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 28 and 41?
Answer
(One thousand, one hundred forty-eight)
Finding LCM for 28 and 41 using GCF of these numbers
The first method to find LCM for numbers 28 and 41 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:
LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF
GCF of numbers 28 and 41 is 1, so
LCM = (28 × 41) ÷ 1
LCM = 1148 ÷ 1
LCM = 1148
Finding LCM for 28 and 41 by Listing Multiples
The second method to find LCM for numbers 28 and 41 is to list out the common multiples for both numbers and pick the first one that matches:
Multiples of 28: 28, 56, 84, 112, 140, 168, 196, 224, 252, 280, 308, 336, 364, 392, 420, 448, 476, 504, 532, 560, 588, 616, 644, 672, 700, 728, 756, 784, 812, 840, 868, 896, 924, 952, 980, 1008, 1036, 1064, 1092, 1120, 1148, 1176, 1204
Multiples of 41: 41, 82, 123, 164, 205, 246, 287, 328, 369, 410, 451, 492, 533, 574, 615, 656, 697, 738, 779, 820, 861, 902, 943, 984, 1025, 1066, 1107, 1148, 1189, 1230
So the LCM for 28 and 41 is 1148
Finding LCM for 28 and 41 by Prime Factorization
Another method to find LCM for numbers 28 and 41 is to list all Prime Factors for both numbers and multiply the highest exponent prime factors:
All Prime Factors of 28: 2, 2, 7 (exponent form: 22, 71)
All Prime Factors of 41: 41 (exponent form: 411)
22 × 71 × 411 = 1148
