What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 60 and 295?

Answer

LCM of 60 and 295 is 3,540

(Three thousand, five hundred forty)

Finding LCM for 60 and 295 using GCF of these numbers

The first method to find LCM for numbers 60 and 295 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:

LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF

GCF of numbers 60 and 295 is 5, so

LCM = (60 × 295) ÷ 5

LCM = 17700 ÷ 5

LCM = 3540

Finding LCM for 60 and 295 by Listing Multiples

The second method to find LCM for numbers 60 and 295 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, 1020, 1080, 1140, 1200, 1260, 1320, 1380, 1440, 1500, 1560, 1620, 1680, 1740, 1800, 1860, 1920, 1980, 2040, 2100, 2160, 2220, 2280, 2340, 2400, 2460, 2520, 2580, 2640, 2700, 2760, 2820, 2880, 2940, 3000, 3060, 3120, 3180, 3240, 3300, 3360, 3420, 3480, 3540, 3600, 3660

Multiples of 295: 295, 590, 885, 1180, 1475, 1770, 2065, 2360, 2655, 2950, 3245, 3540, 3835, 4130

So the LCM for 60 and 295 is 3540

Finding LCM for 60 and 295 by Prime Factorization

Another method to find LCM for numbers 60 and 295 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 295: 5, 59 (exponent form: 51, 591)

22 × 31 × 51 × 591 = 3540
