(One hundred eight)
Finding LCM for 36 and 27 using GCF's of these numbers
The first method to find LCM for numbers 36 and 27 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:
LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF
GCF of numbers 36 and 27 is 9, so
LCM = (36 × 27) ÷ 9
LCM = 972 ÷ 9
LCM = 108
