LCM for 55 and 250

What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 55 and 250?

Answer: LCM of 55 and 250 is 2,750

(Two thousand, seven hundred fifty)

Finding LCM for 55 and 250 using GCF's of these numbers

The first method to find LCM for numbers 55 and 250 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:

LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF

GCF of numbers 55 and 250 is 5, so

LCM = (55 × 250) ÷ 5

LCM = 13750 ÷ 5

LCM = 2750

Finding LCM for 55 and 250 by Listing Multiples

The second method to find LCM for numbers 55 and 250 is to list out the common multiples for both nubmers and pick the first which matching:

Multiples of 55: 55, 110, 165, 220, 275, 330, 385, 440, 495, 550, 605, 660, 715, 770, 825, 880, 935, 990, 1045, 1100, 1155, 1210, 1265, 1320, 1375, 1430, 1485, 1540, 1595, 1650, 1705, 1760, 1815, 1870, 1925, 1980, 2035, 2090, 2145, 2200, 2255, 2310, 2365, 2420, 2475, 2530, 2585, 2640, 2695, 2750, 2805, 2860

Multiples of 250: 250, 500, 750, 1000, 1250, 1500, 1750, 2000, 2250, 2500, 2750, 3000, 3250
