What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 30 and 140?

Answer: LCM of 30 and 140 is 420

(Four hundred twenty)

Finding LCM for 30 and 140 using GCF's of these numbers

The first method to find LCM for numbers 30 and 140 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:

LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF

GCF of numbers 30 and 140 is 10, so

LCM = (30 × 140) ÷ 10

LCM = 4200 ÷ 10

LCM = 420

Finding LCM for 30 and 140 by Listing Multiples

The second method to find LCM for numbers 30 and 140 is to list out the common multiples for both nubmers and pick the first which matching:

Multiples of 30: 30, 60, 90, 120, 150, 180, 210, 240, 270, 300, 330, 360, 390, 420, 450, 480

Multiples of 140: 140, 280, 420, 560, 700

So the LCM for 30 and 140 is 420
