What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 78 and 100?

Answer

LCM of 78 and 100 is
3,900

First common multiples: 3,900; 7,800; 11,700; …

3,900 is divisible by both: 3,900 ÷ 78 = 50; 3,900 ÷ 100 = 39 — and 50 and 39 share no factor but 1, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/78 by 50 and of y/100 by 39.

78 = 2 × 3 × 13

100 = 22 × 52
