What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 5 and 99?

Answer: LCM of 5 and 99 is 495

(Four hundred ninety-five)

Finding LCM for 5 and 99 using GCF's of these numbers

The first method to find LCM for numbers 5 and 99 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:

LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF

GCF of numbers 5 and 99 is 1, so

LCM = (5 × 99) ÷ 1

LCM = 495 ÷ 1

LCM = 495

Finding LCM for 5 and 99 by Listing Multiples

The second method to find LCM for numbers 5 and 99 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, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60, 65, 70, 75, 80, 85, 90, 95, 100, 105, 110, 115, 120, 125, 130, 135, 140, 145, 150, 155, 160, 165, 170, 175, 180, 185, 190, 195, 200, 205, 210, 215, 220, 225, 230, 235, 240, 245, 250, 255, 260, 265, 270, 275, 280, 285, 290, 295, 300, 305, 310, 315, 320, 325, 330, 335, 340, 345, 350, 355, 360, 365, 370, 375, 380, 385, 390, 395, 400, 405, 410, 415, 420, 425, 430, 435, 440, 445, 450, 455, 460, 465, 470, 475, 480, 485, 490, 495, 500, 505

Multiples of 99: 99, 198, 297, 396, 495, 594, 693

So the LCM for 5 and 99 is 495

Finding LCM for 5 and 99 by Prime Factorization

Another method to find LCM for numbers 5 and 99 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)
