What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 38 and 39?

Answer

LCM of 38 and 39 is 1,482

(One thousand, four hundred eighty-two)

Finding LCM for 38 and 39 using GCF of these numbers

The first method to find LCM for numbers 38 and 39 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:

LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF

GCF of numbers 38 and 39 is 1, so

LCM = (38 × 39) ÷ 1

LCM = 1482 ÷ 1

LCM = 1482

Finding LCM for 38 and 39 by Listing Multiples

The second method to find LCM for numbers 38 and 39 is to list out the common multiples for both numbers and pick the first one that matches:

Multiples of 38: 38, 76, 114, 152, 190, 228, 266, 304, 342, 380, 418, 456, 494, 532, 570, 608, 646, 684, 722, 760, 798, 836, 874, 912, 950, 988, 1026, 1064, 1102, 1140, 1178, 1216, 1254, 1292, 1330, 1368, 1406, 1444, 1482, 1520, 1558

Multiples of 39: 39, 78, 117, 156, 195, 234, 273, 312, 351, 390, 429, 468, 507, 546, 585, 624, 663, 702, 741, 780, 819, 858, 897, 936, 975, 1014, 1053, 1092, 1131, 1170, 1209, 1248, 1287, 1326, 1365, 1404, 1443, 1482, 1521, 1560

So the LCM for 38 and 39 is 1482

Finding LCM for 38 and 39 by Prime Factorization

Another method to find LCM for numbers 38 and 39 is to list all Prime Factors for both numbers and multiply the highest exponent prime factors:

All Prime Factors of 38: 2, 19 (exponent form: 21, 191)

All Prime Factors of 39: 3, 13 (exponent form: 31, 131)

21 × 191 × 31 × 131 = 1482
