LCM for 60 and 270
What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 60 and 270?
(Five hundred forty)
Finding LCM for 60 and 270 using GCF's of these numbers
The first method to find LCM for numbers 60 and 270 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:
LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF
GCF of numbers 60 and 270 is 30, so
LCM = (60 × 270) ÷ 30
LCM = 16200 ÷ 30
LCM = 540
