3. using Divison method , find the LCM of :
(iii) 44, 72 and 80
Answers
Answer:
Step 1: Write the given numbers in a horizontal line, separating them by commas.
Step 2: Divide them by a suitable prime number, which exactly divides at least two of the given numbers.
Step 3: We put the quotient directly under the numbers in the next row. If the number is not divided exactly, we bring it down in the next row.
Step 4: We continue the process of step 2 and step 3 until all co-prime numbers are left in the last row.
Step 5: We multiply all the prime numbers by which we have divided and the co-prime numbers left in the last row. This product is the least common multiple of the given numbers.
For example:
1. Find least common multiple (L.C.M) of 20 and 30 by division method.
Solution:
least common multiple (L.C.M) of 20 and 30
Least common multiple (L.C.M) of 20 and 30 = 2 × 2 × 5 × 3 = 60.
