What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 46 and 49?

Answer

LCM of 46 and 49 is
2,254

First common multiples: 2,254; 4,508; 6,762; …

2,254 is divisible by both: 2,254 ÷ 46 = 49; 2,254 ÷ 49 = 46 — and 49 and 46 share no factor but 1, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/46 by 49 and of y/49 by 46.

46 and 49 are coprime (GCF = 1), so their LCM is simply the product: 46 × 49 = 2,254.

46 = 2 × 23

49 = 72
