What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 9 and 17?
Answer
LCM of 9 and 17 is
153
First common multiples: 153, 306, 459, …
153 is divisible by both: 153 ÷ 9 = 17, 153 ÷ 17 = 9 — and 17 and 9 share no factor but 1, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/9 by 17 and of y/17 by 9.
9 and 17 are coprime (GCF = 1), so their LCM is simply the product: 9 × 17 = 153.

17 — prime
| Prime | 9 | 17 | Highest power |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3 | 32 | — | 32 |
| 17 | — | 17 | 17 |
— = power 0: the prime is not a factor of this number; the LCM takes it from the number that has it.
LCM = 32 × 17 = 153
