Question

how can we find LCM of two numbers
with step by step explanation ​

Answer 1

Answer:

One way to find the least common multiple of two numbers is to first list the prime factors of each number. Then multiply each factor the greatest number of times it occurs in either number. If the same factor occurs more than once in both numbers, you multiply the factor the greatest number of times it occurs.

Answer 2

Find the least common multiple (LCM) of two numbers by listing multiples

1. List the first several multiples of each number.

2. Look for multiples common to both lists. ...

3. Look for the smallest number that is common to both lists.

4. This number is the LCM.
