Lowest common multiple (LCM)

Answers and reasoning. Review before teaching.

  1. 1. What is the lowest common multiple (LCM) of 25 and 30?

    150

    The highest common factor of 25 and 30 is 5, so LCM = (25 × 30) ÷ 5 = 150.

  2. 2. What is the lowest common multiple (LCM) of 55 and 77?

    385

    The highest common factor of 55 and 77 is 11, so LCM = (55 × 77) ÷ 11 = 385.

  3. 3. What is the lowest common multiple (LCM) of 20 and 35?

    140

    The highest common factor of 20 and 35 is 5, so LCM = (20 × 35) ÷ 5 = 140.

  4. 4. What is the lowest common multiple (LCM) of 8 and 20?

    40

    The highest common factor of 8 and 20 is 4, so LCM = (8 × 20) ÷ 4 = 40.

  5. 5. What is the lowest common multiple (LCM) of 35 and 49?

    245

    The highest common factor of 35 and 49 is 7, so LCM = (35 × 49) ÷ 7 = 245.

  6. 6. What is the lowest common multiple (LCM) of 24 and 84?

    168

    The highest common factor of 24 and 84 is 12, so LCM = (24 × 84) ÷ 12 = 168.

  7. 7. What is the lowest common multiple (LCM) of 22 and 77?

    154

    The highest common factor of 22 and 77 is 11, so LCM = (22 × 77) ÷ 11 = 154.

  8. 8. What is the lowest common multiple (LCM) of 45 and 63?

    315

    The highest common factor of 45 and 63 is 9, so LCM = (45 × 63) ÷ 9 = 315.

  9. 9. What is the lowest common multiple (LCM) of 18 and 30?

    90

    The highest common factor of 18 and 30 is 6, so LCM = (18 × 30) ÷ 6 = 90.

  10. 10. What is the lowest common multiple (LCM) of 24 and 36?

    72

    The highest common factor of 24 and 36 is 12, so LCM = (24 × 36) ÷ 12 = 72.

  11. 11. What is the lowest common multiple (LCM) of 9 and 12?

    36

    The highest common factor of 9 and 12 is 3, so LCM = (9 × 12) ÷ 3 = 36.

  12. 12. What is the lowest common multiple (LCM) of 35 and 42?

    210

    The highest common factor of 35 and 42 is 7, so LCM = (35 × 42) ÷ 7 = 210.
