What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 38 and 50?

Answer

LCM of 38 and 50 is
950

First common multiples: 950; 1,900; 2,850; …

950 is divisible by both: 950 ÷ 38 = 25, 950 ÷ 50 = 19 — and 25 and 19 share no factor but 1, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/38 by 25 and of y/50 by 19.

38 = 2 × 19

50 = 2 × 52

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

LCM = 2 × 52 × 19 = 950
