LCM for 3 and 88
What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 3 and 88?
(Two hundred sixty-four)
Finding LCM for 3 and 88 using GCF's of these numbers
The first method to find LCM for numbers 3 and 88 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:
LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF
GCF of numbers 3 and 88 is 1, so
LCM = (3 × 88) ÷ 1
LCM = 264 ÷ 1
LCM = 264
