What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 29 and 45?

Answer

LCM of 29 and 45 is
1,305

First common multiples: 1,305; 2,610; 3,915; …

1,305 is divisible by both: 1,305 ÷ 29 = 45; 1,305 ÷ 45 = 29 — and 45 and 29 share no factor but 1, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/29 by 45 and of y/45 by 29.

29 and 45 are coprime (GCF = 1), so their LCM is simply the product: 29 × 45 = 1,305.
