What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 28 and 43?

Answer

LCM of 28 and 43 is
1,204

First common multiples: 1,204; 2,408; 3,612; …

1,204 is divisible by both: 1,204 ÷ 28 = 43; 1,204 ÷ 43 = 28 — and 43 and 28 share no factor but 1, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/28 by 43 and of y/43 by 28.

28 and 43 are coprime (GCF = 1), so their LCM is simply the product: 28 × 43 = 1,204.

28 = 22 × 7
