Finding LCM for 60 and 420 using GCF's of these numbers

The first method to find LCM for numbers 60 and 420 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:

LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF

GCF of numbers 60 and 420 is 60, so

LCM = (60 × 420) ÷ 60

LCM = 25200 ÷ 60

LCM = 420
