What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 7 and 50?

Answer

LCM of 7 and 50 is
350

First common multiples: 350; 700; 1,050; …

350 is divisible by both: 350 ÷ 7 = 50, 350 ÷ 50 = 7 — and 50 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 50 and of y/50 by 7.

7 and 50 are coprime (GCF = 1), so their LCM is simply the product: 7 × 50 = 350.
