What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 52 and 59?

Answer

LCM of 52 and 59 is
3,068

First common multiples: 3,068; 6,136; 9,204; …

3,068 is divisible by both: 3,068 ÷ 52 = 59; 3,068 ÷ 59 = 52 — and 59 and 52 share no factor but 1, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/52 by 59 and of y/59 by 52.

52 and 59 are coprime (GCF = 1), so their LCM is simply the product: 52 × 59 = 3,068.

52 = 22 × 13
