What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 48 and 160?

Answer: LCM of 48 and 160 is 480

(Four hundred eighty)

Finding LCM for 48 and 160 using GCF's of these numbers

The first method to find LCM for numbers 48 and 160 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:

LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF

GCF of numbers 48 and 160 is 16, so

LCM = (48 × 160) ÷ 16

LCM = 7680 ÷ 16

LCM = 480

Finding LCM for 48 and 160 by Listing Multiples

The second method to find LCM for numbers 48 and 160 is to list out the common multiples for both nubmers and pick the first which matching:

Multiples of 48: 48, 96, 144, 192, 240, 288, 336, 384, 432, 480, 528, 576

Multiples of 160: 160, 320, 480, 640, 800

So the LCM for 48 and 160 is 480

Finding LCM for 48 and 160 by Prime Factorization

Another method to find LCM for numbers 48 and 160 is to list all Prime Factors for both numbers and multiply the highest exponent prime factors:

All Prime Factors of 48: 2, 2, 2, 2, 3 (exponent form: 2⁴, 3¹)

All Prime Factors of 160: 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 5 (exponent form: 2⁵, 5¹)

2⁵ × 3¹ × 5¹ = 480
