What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 81 and 84?

Answer: LCM of 81 and 84 is 2,268

(Two thousand, two hundred sixty-eight)

Finding LCM for 81 and 84 using GCF's of these numbers

The first method to find LCM for numbers 81 and 84 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:

LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF

GCF of numbers 81 and 84 is 3, so

LCM = (81 × 84) ÷ 3

LCM = 6804 ÷ 3

LCM = 2268
