What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 36 and 121?

Answer

LCM of 36 and 121 is
4,356

First common multiples: 4,356; 8,712; 13,068; …

4,356 is divisible by both: 4,356 ÷ 36 = 121; 4,356 ÷ 121 = 36 — and 121 and 36 share no factor but 1, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/36 by 121 and of y/121 by 36.

36 and 121 are coprime (GCF = 1), so their LCM is simply the product: 36 × 121 = 4,356.

36 = 22 × 32
