Question

find L. C. M of 24 and 56​

Answer 1

Answer:

The LCM of 24 and 56 is 168.

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the prime factorization of 24

24 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3

Find the prime factorization of 56

56 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 7

Multiply each factor the greater number of times it occurs in steps i) or ii) above to find the LCM:

LCM = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 7

= 168

Answer 2

We know that ;

First we find prime factorization of 24 and 56 .

$\large \: 24 = 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 3 \\ \\ \\ \large \: 56 = 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 7 \\ \\ \\ \bf \large \: Common \: \: Factor = 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 3 \times 7 \\ \\ \large2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 3 \times 7 \\ \\ \bf \large \: = 168$

Hence , the LCM of 24 and 56 is 168.
