What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 32 and 54?
(Eight hundred sixty-four)
Finding LCM for 32 and 54 using GCF's of these numbers
The first method to find LCM for numbers 32 and 54 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:
LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF
GCF of numbers 32 and 54 is 2, so
LCM = (32 × 54) ÷ 2
LCM = 1728 ÷ 2
LCM = 864
