What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 56 and 308?

Answer

LCM of 56 and 308 is 616

(Six hundred sixteen)

Finding LCM for 56 and 308 using GCF of these numbers

The first method to find LCM for numbers 56 and 308 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:

LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF

GCF of numbers 56 and 308 is 28, so

LCM = (56 × 308) ÷ 28

LCM = 17248 ÷ 28

LCM = 616

Finding LCM for 56 and 308 by Listing Multiples

The second method to find LCM for numbers 56 and 308 is to list out the common multiples for both numbers and pick the first one that matches:

Multiples of 56: 56, 112, 168, 224, 280, 336, 392, 448, 504, 560, 616, 672, 728

Multiples of 308: 308, 616, 924, 1232

So the LCM for 56 and 308 is 616

Finding LCM for 56 and 308 by Prime Factorization

Another method to find LCM for numbers 56 and 308 is to list all Prime Factors for both numbers and multiply the highest exponent prime factors:

All Prime Factors of 56: 2, 2, 2, 7 (exponent form: 23, 71)

All Prime Factors of 308: 2, 2, 7, 11 (exponent form: 22, 71, 111)

23 × 71 × 111 = 616
