LCM for 60 and 216

What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 60 and 216?

Answer: LCM of 60 and 216 is 1,080

(One thousand, eighty)

Finding LCM for 60 and 216 using GCF's of these numbers

The first method to find LCM for numbers 60 and 216 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:

LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF

GCF of numbers 60 and 216 is 12, so

LCM = (60 × 216) ÷ 12

LCM = 12960 ÷ 12

LCM = 1080
