LCM for 8 and 11
What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 8 and 11?
(Eighty-eight)
Finding LCM for 8 and 11 using GCF's of these numbers
The first method to find LCM for numbers 8 and 11 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:
LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF
GCF of numbers 8 and 11 is 1, so
LCM = (8 × 11) ÷ 1
LCM = 88 ÷ 1
LCM = 88
Finding LCM for 8 and 11 by Listing Multiples
The second method to find LCM for numbers 8 and 11 is to list out the common multiples for both nubmers and pick the first which matching:
Multiples of 8: 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 72, 80, 88, 96, 104
Multiples of 11: 11, 22, 33, 44, 55, 66, 77, 88, 99, 110
So the LCM for 8 and 11 is 88
Finding LCM for 8 and 11 by Prime Factorization
Another method to find LCM for numbers 8 and 11 is to list all Prime Factors for both numbers and multiply the highest exponent prime factors:
All Prime Factors of 8: 2, 2, 2 (exponent form: 23)
All Prime Factors of 11: 11 (exponent form: 111)
23 × 111 = 88
