What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 52 and 65?

Answer

LCM of 52 and 65 is
260

First common multiples: 260, 520, 780, …

260 is divisible by both: 260 ÷ 52 = 5, 260 ÷ 65 = 4 — and 5 and 4 share no factor but 1, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/52 by 5 and of y/65 by 4.

52 = 22 × 13

65 = 5 × 13
