What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 46 and 74?

Answer: LCM of 46 and 74 is 1,702

(One thousand, seven hundred two)

Finding LCM for 46 and 74 using GCF's of these numbers

The first method to find LCM for numbers 46 and 74 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:

LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF

GCF of numbers 46 and 74 is 2, so

LCM = (46 × 74) ÷ 2

LCM = 3404 ÷ 2

LCM = 1702

Finding LCM for 46 and 74 by Listing Multiples

The second method to find LCM for numbers 46 and 74 is to list out the common multiples for both nubmers and pick the first which matching:

Multiples of 46: 46, 92, 138, 184, 230, 276, 322, 368, 414, 460, 506, 552, 598, 644, 690, 736, 782, 828, 874, 920, 966, 1012, 1058, 1104, 1150, 1196, 1242, 1288, 1334, 1380, 1426, 1472, 1518, 1564, 1610, 1656, 1702, 1748, 1794

Multiples of 74: 74, 148, 222, 296, 370, 444, 518, 592, 666, 740, 814, 888, 962, 1036, 1110, 1184, 1258, 1332, 1406, 1480, 1554, 1628, 1702, 1776, 1850

So the LCM for 46 and 74 is 1702

Finding LCM for 46 and 74 by Prime Factorization

Another method to find LCM for numbers 46 and 74 is to list all Prime Factors for both numbers and multiply the highest exponent prime factors:

All Prime Factors of 46: 2, 23 (exponent form: 21, 231)

All Prime Factors of 74: 2, 37 (exponent form: 21, 371)

21 × 231 × 371 = 1702
