What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 80 and 150?

Answer

LCM of 80 and 150 is
1,200

First common multiples: 1,200; 2,400; 3,600; …

1,200 is divisible by both: 1,200 ÷ 80 = 15; 1,200 ÷ 150 = 8 — and 15 and 8 share no factor but 1, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/80 by 15 and of y/150 by 8.

80 = 24 × 5

150 = 2 × 3 × 52
