Answer: LCM of 40 and 44 is 440

(Four hundred forty)

Finding LCM for 40 and 44 using GCF's of these numbers

The first method to find LCM for numbers 40 and 44 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:

LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF

GCF of numbers 40 and 44 is 4, so

LCM = (40 × 44) ÷ 4

LCM = 1760 ÷ 4

LCM = 440
