What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 30 and 215?

Answer

LCM of 30 and 215 is
1,290

First common multiples: 1,290; 2,580; 3,870; …

1,290 is divisible by both: 1,290 ÷ 30 = 43; 1,290 ÷ 215 = 6 — and 43 and 6 share no factor but 1, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/30 by 43 and of y/215 by 6.

30 = 2 × 3 × 5

215 = 5 × 43
