What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 9 and 50?

Answer

LCM of 9 and 50 is
450

First common multiples: 450; 900; 1,350; …

450 is divisible by both: 450 ÷ 9 = 50, 450 ÷ 50 = 9 — and 50 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 50 and of y/50 by 9.

9 and 50 are coprime (GCF = 1), so their LCM is simply the product: 9 × 50 = 450.

9 = 32

50 = 2 × 52

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

LCM = 2 × 32 × 52 = 450
