What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 6 and 64?
(One hundred ninety-two)
Finding LCM for 6 and 64 using GCF's of these numbers
The first method to find LCM for numbers 6 and 64 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:
LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF
GCF of numbers 6 and 64 is 2, so
LCM = (6 × 64) ÷ 2
LCM = 384 ÷ 2
LCM = 192
Finding LCM for 6 and 64 by Listing Multiples
The second method to find LCM for numbers 6 and 64 is to list out the common multiples for both nubmers and pick the first which matching:
Multiples of 6: 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54, 60, 66, 72, 78, 84, 90, 96, 102, 108, 114, 120, 126, 132, 138, 144, 150, 156, 162, 168, 174, 180, 186, 192, 198, 204
Multiples of 64: 64, 128, 192, 256, 320
So the LCM for 6 and 64 is 192
Finding LCM for 6 and 64 by Prime Factorization
Another method to find LCM for numbers 6 and 64 is to list all Prime Factors for both numbers and multiply the highest exponent prime factors:
All Prime Factors of 6: 2, 3 (exponent form: 21, 31)
All Prime Factors of 64: 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2 (exponent form: 26)
26 × 31 = 192
