LCM for 80 and 130
What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 80 and 130?
Answer
(One thousand, forty)
Finding LCM for 80 and 130 using GCF of these numbers
The first method to find LCM for numbers 80 and 130 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:
LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF
GCF of numbers 80 and 130 is 10, so
LCM = (80 × 130) ÷ 10
LCM = 10400 ÷ 10
LCM = 1040
Finding LCM for 80 and 130 by Listing Multiples
The second method to find LCM for numbers 80 and 130 is to list out the common multiples for both numbers and pick the first one that matches:
Multiples of 80: 80, 160, 240, 320, 400, 480, 560, 640, 720, 800, 880, 960, 1040, 1120, 1200
Multiples of 130: 130, 260, 390, 520, 650, 780, 910, 1040, 1170, 1300
So the LCM for 80 and 130 is 1040
Finding LCM for 80 and 130 by Prime Factorization
Another method to find LCM for numbers 80 and 130 is to list all Prime Factors for both numbers and multiply the highest exponent prime factors:
All Prime Factors of 80: 2, 2, 2, 2, 5 (exponent form: 24, 51)
All Prime Factors of 130: 2, 5, 13 (exponent form: 21, 51, 131)
24 × 51 × 131 = 1040
