What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 29 and 56?

Answer

LCM of 29 and 56 is
1,624

First common multiples: 1,624; 3,248; 4,872; …

1,624 is divisible by both: 1,624 ÷ 29 = 56; 1,624 ÷ 56 = 29 — and 56 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 56 and of y/56 by 29.

29 and 56 are coprime (GCF = 1), so their LCM is simply the product: 29 × 56 = 1,624.
