What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 39 and 52?

Answer

LCM of 39 and 52 is
156

First common multiples: 156, 312, 468, …

156 is divisible by both: 156 ÷ 39 = 4, 156 ÷ 52 = 3 — and 4 and 3 share no factor but 1, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/39 by 4 and of y/52 by 3.

39 = 3 × 13

52 = 22 × 13
