What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 8 and 49?
Answer
LCM of 8 and 49 is
392
First common multiples: 392; 784; 1,176; …
392 is divisible by both: 392 ÷ 8 = 49, 392 ÷ 49 = 8 — and 49 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 49 and of y/49 by 8.
8 and 49 are coprime (GCF = 1), so their LCM is simply the product: 8 × 49 = 392.
8 = 23
49 = 72
| Prime | 8 | 49 | Highest power |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 | 23 | — | 23 |
| 7 | — | 72 | 72 |
— = power 0: the prime is not a factor of this number; the LCM takes it from the number that has it.
LCM = 23 × 72 = 392
