What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 50 and 375?

Answer

LCM of 50 and 375 is
750

First common multiples: 750; 1,500; 2,250; …

750 is divisible by both: 750 ÷ 50 = 15, 750 ÷ 375 = 2 — and 15 and 2 share no factor but 1, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/50 by 15 and of y/375 by 2.

50 = 2 × 52

375 = 3 × 53
