Question
Find Least Common Multiple of 12 and 30 using LCM formula..
Answer
LCM( 12, 30 ) = 60
Explanation
The formula for finding LCM is
$$ \text{LCM} (a, b) = \frac{ a \cdot b }{ \text{GCD}(a,b)} $$In this example we have: a = 12, b = 30 and GCD(12, 30) = 6.
$$ \text{LCM} (12, 30) = \frac{ 12 \cdot 30 }{ \text{GCD}(12,30)} = \frac{ 360 }{ 6 } = 60 $$This page was created using
