What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 50 and 60?

Answer

LCM of 50 and 60 is

300

First common multiples: 300, 600, 900, …

300 is divisible by both: 300 ÷ 50 = 6, 300 ÷ 60 = 5 — and 6 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 6 and of y/60 by 5.

50 = 2 × 5²

60 = 2² × 3 × 5

Prime	50	60	Highest power
2	2	2²	2²
3	—	3	3
5	5²	5	5²

— = power 0: the prime is not a factor of this number; the LCM takes it from the number that has it.

LCM = 2² × 3 × 5² = 300
