What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 56 and 90?

Answer

LCM of 56 and 90 is
2,520

First common multiples: 2,520; 5,040; 7,560; …

2,520 is divisible by both: 2,520 ÷ 56 = 45; 2,520 ÷ 90 = 28 — and 45 and 28 share no factor but 1, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/56 by 45 and of y/90 by 28.

56 = 23 × 7

90 = 2 × 32 × 5
