What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 8 and 41?

Answer

LCM of 8 and 41 is
328

First common multiples: 328, 656, 984, …

328 is divisible by both: 328 ÷ 8 = 41, 328 ÷ 41 = 8 — and 41 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 41 and of y/41 by 8.

8 and 41 are coprime (GCF = 1), so their LCM is simply the product: 8 × 41 = 328.

8 = 23
