LCM for 50 and 170
What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 50 and 170?
Answer
(Eight hundred fifty)
Finding LCM for 50 and 170 using GCF of these numbers
The first method to find LCM for numbers 50 and 170 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:
LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF
GCF of numbers 50 and 170 is 10, so
LCM = (50 × 170) ÷ 10
LCM = 8500 ÷ 10
LCM = 850
Finding LCM for 50 and 170 by Listing Multiples
The second method to find LCM for numbers 50 and 170 is to list out the common multiples for both numbers and pick the first one that matches:
Multiples of 50: 50, 100, 150, 200, 250, 300, 350, 400, 450, 500, 550, 600, 650, 700, 750, 800, 850, 900, 950
Multiples of 170: 170, 340, 510, 680, 850, 1020, 1190
So the LCM for 50 and 170 is 850
Finding LCM for 50 and 170 by Prime Factorization
Another method to find LCM for numbers 50 and 170 is to list all Prime Factors for both numbers and multiply the highest exponent prime factors:
All Prime Factors of 50: 2, 5, 5 (exponent form: 21, 52)
All Prime Factors of 170: 2, 5, 17 (exponent form: 21, 51, 171)
21 × 52 × 171 = 850
