Finding LCM for 9 and 30 using GCF's of these numbers

The first method to find LCM for numbers 9 and 30 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:

LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF

GCF of numbers 9 and 30 is 3, so

LCM = (9 × 30) ÷ 3

LCM = 270 ÷ 3

LCM = 90

Finding LCM for 9 and 30 by Listing Multiples

The second method to find LCM for numbers 9 and 30 is to list out the common multiples for both nubmers and pick the first which matching:

Multiples of 9: 9, 18, 27, 36, 45, 54, 63, 72, 81, 90, 99, 108

Multiples of 30: 30, 60, 90, 120, 150

So the LCM for 9 and 30 is 90

Finding LCM for 9 and 30 by Prime Factorization
