What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 50 and 140?
Answer
LCM of 50 and 140 is
700
First common multiples: 700; 1,400; 2,100; …
700 is divisible by both: 700 ÷ 50 = 14, 700 ÷ 140 = 5 — and 14 and 5 share no factor but 1, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/50 by 14 and of y/140 by 5.
50 = 2 × 52
140 = 22 × 5 × 7
| Prime | 50 | 140 | Highest power |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 | 2 | 22 | 22 |
| 5 | 52 | 5 | 52 |
| 7 | — | 7 | 7 |
— = power 0: the prime is not a factor of this number; the LCM takes it from the number that has it.
LCM = 22 × 52 × 7 = 700
