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

Answer

LCM of 56 and 90 is 2,520

(Two thousand, five hundred twenty)

Finding LCM for 56 and 90 using GCF of these numbers

The first method to find LCM for numbers 56 and 90 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:

LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF

GCF of numbers 56 and 90 is 2, so

LCM = (56 × 90) ÷ 2

LCM = 5040 ÷ 2

LCM = 2520

Finding LCM for 56 and 90 by Listing Multiples

The second method to find LCM for numbers 56 and 90 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, 784, 840, 896, 952, 1008, 1064, 1120, 1176, 1232, 1288, 1344, 1400, 1456, 1512, 1568, 1624, 1680, 1736, 1792, 1848, 1904, 1960, 2016, 2072, 2128, 2184, 2240, 2296, 2352, 2408, 2464, 2520, 2576, 2632

Multiples of 90: 90, 180, 270, 360, 450, 540, 630, 720, 810, 900, 990, 1080, 1170, 1260, 1350, 1440, 1530, 1620, 1710, 1800, 1890, 1980, 2070, 2160, 2250, 2340, 2430, 2520, 2610, 2700

So the LCM for 56 and 90 is 2520

Finding LCM for 56 and 90 by Prime Factorization

Another method to find LCM for numbers 56 and 90 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 90: 2, 3, 3, 5 (exponent form: 21, 32, 51)

23 × 71 × 32 × 51 = 2520
