What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 55 and 80?

Answer

LCM of 55 and 80 is
880

First common multiples: 880; 1,760; 2,640; …

880 is divisible by both: 880 ÷ 55 = 16, 880 ÷ 80 = 11 — and 16 and 11 share no factor but 1, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/55 by 16 and of y/80 by 11.

55 = 5 × 11

80 = 24 × 5
