LCM for 60 and 215
What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 60 and 215?
Answer
(Two thousand five hundred eighty)
Finding LCM for 60 and 215 using GCF of these numbers
The first method to find LCM for numbers 60 and 215 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:
LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF
GCF of numbers 60 and 215 is 5, so
LCM = (60 × 215) ÷ 5
LCM = 12,900 ÷ 5
LCM = 2,580
Finding LCM for 60 and 215 by Listing Multiples
The second method to find LCM for numbers 60 and 215 is to list out the common multiples for both numbers and pick the first one that matches:
Multiples of 60: 60, 120, 180, 240, 300, 360, 420, 480, 540, 600, 660, 720, 780, 840, 900, 960, 1,020, 1,080, 1,140, 1,200, 1,260, 1,320, 1,380, 1,440, 1,500, 1,560, 1,620, 1,680, 1,740, 1,800, 1,860, 1,920, 1,980, 2,040, 2,100, 2,160, 2,220, 2,280, 2,340, 2,400, 2,460, 2,520, 2,580, 2,640, 2,700
Multiples of 215: 215, 430, 645, 860, 1,075, 1,290, 1,505, 1,720, 1,935, 2,150, 2,365, 2,580, 2,795, 3,010
So the LCM for 60 and 215 is 2,580
Finding LCM for 60 and 215 by Prime Factorization
Another method to find LCM for numbers 60 and 215 is to list all Prime Factors for both numbers and multiply the highest exponent prime factors:
All Prime Factors of 60: 2, 2, 3, 5 (exponent form: 22, 31, 51)
All Prime Factors of 215: 5, 43 (exponent form: 51, 431)
22 × 31 × 51 × 431 = 2,580
