What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 50 and 285?
Answer
LCM of 50 and 285 is
2,850
First common multiples: 2,850; 5,700; 8,550; …
2,850 is divisible by both: 2,850 ÷ 50 = 57; 2,850 ÷ 285 = 10 — and 57 and 10 share no factor but 1, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/50 by 57 and of y/285 by 10.
50 = 2 × 52
285 = 3 × 5 × 19
| Prime | 50 | 285 | Highest power |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 | 2 | — | 2 |
| 3 | — | 3 | 3 |
| 5 | 52 | 5 | 52 |
| 19 | — | 19 | 19 |
— = power 0: the prime is not a factor of this number; the LCM takes it from the number that has it.
LCM = 2 × 3 × 52 × 19 = 2,850
