What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 7 and 5?
Answer
LCM of 7 and 5 is
35
First common multiples: 35, 70, 105, …
35 is divisible by both: 35 ÷ 7 = 5, 35 ÷ 5 = 7 — and 5 and 7 share no factor but 1, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/7 by 5 and of y/5 by 7.
7 and 5 are coprime (GCF = 1), so their LCM is simply the product: 7 × 5 = 35.

5 — prime
| Prime | 7 | 5 | Highest power |
|---|---|---|---|
