What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 8 and 33?

Answer

LCM of 8 and 33 is
264

First common multiples: 264, 528, 792, …

264 is divisible by both: 264 ÷ 8 = 33, 264 ÷ 33 = 8 — and 33 and 8 share no factor but 1, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/8 by 33 and of y/33 by 8.

8 and 33 are coprime (GCF = 1), so their LCM is simply the product: 8 × 33 = 264.

8 = 23

33 = 3 × 11
