LCM for 5 and 25

What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 5 and 25?

Answer: LCM of 5 and 25 is 25

(Twenty-five)

Finding LCM for 5 and 25 using GCF's of these numbers

The first method to find LCM for numbers 5 and 25 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:

LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF

GCF of numbers 5 and 25 is 5, so

LCM = (5 × 25) ÷ 5

LCM = 125 ÷ 5

LCM = 25

Finding LCM for 5 and 25 by Listing Multiples

The second method to find LCM for numbers 5 and 25 is to list out the common multiples for both nubmers and pick the first which matching:

Multiples of 5: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35

Multiples of 25: 25, 50, 75, 100, 125, 150, 175, [...], 25

So the LCM for 5 and 25 is 25

Finding LCM for 5 and 25 by Prime Factorization

Another method to find LCM for numbers 5 and 25 is to list all Prime Factors for both numbers and multiply the highest exponent prime factors:

All Prime Factors of 5: 5 (exponent form: 51)

All Prime Factors of 25: 5, 5 (exponent form: 52)

52 = 25
