What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 34 and 38?

Answer

LCM of 34 and 38 is
646

First common multiples: 646; 1,292; 1,938; …

646 is divisible by both: 646 ÷ 34 = 19, 646 ÷ 38 = 17 — and 19 and 17 share no factor but 1, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/34 by 19 and of y/38 by 17.

34 = 2 × 17

38 = 2 × 19

— = power 0: the prime is not a factor of this number; the LCM takes it from the number that has it.

LCM = 2 × 17 × 19 = 646
