What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 36 and 3?

Answer: LCM of 36 and 3 is 36

(Thirty-six)

Finding LCM for 36 and 3 using GCF's of these numbers

The first method to find LCM for numbers 36 and 3 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:

LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF

GCF of numbers 36 and 3 is 3, so

LCM = (36 × 3) ÷ 3

LCM = 108 ÷ 3

LCM = 36

Finding LCM for 36 and 3 by Listing Multiples

The second method to find LCM for numbers 36 and 3 is to list out the common multiples for both nubmers and pick the first which matching:

Multiples of 36: 36, 72, 108, 144, 180, 216, 252, 288, 324, 360, 396, 432, 468, 504, [...], 36

Multiples of 3: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27, 30, 33, 36, 39, 42

So the LCM for 36 and 3 is 36

Finding LCM for 36 and 3 by Prime Factorization

Another method to find LCM for numbers 36 and 3 is to list all Prime Factors for both numbers and multiply the highest exponent prime factors:

All Prime Factors of 36: 2, 2, 3, 3 (exponent form: 2², 3²)

All Prime Factors of 3: 3 (exponent form: 3¹)

2² × 3² = 36
