What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 9 and 25?

Answer

LCM of 9 and 25 is
225

First common multiples: 225, 450, 675, …

225 is divisible by both: 225 ÷ 9 = 25, 225 ÷ 25 = 9 — and 25 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 25 and of y/25 by 9.

9 and 25 are coprime (GCF = 1), so their LCM is simply the product: 9 × 25 = 225.

9 = 32

25 = 52

— = power 0: the prime is not a factor of this number; the LCM takes it from the number that has it.

LCM = 32 × 52 = 225
