Question
Find Least Common Multiple of 38 and 52 using LCM formula..
Answer
LCM( 38, 52 ) = 988
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 = 38, b = 52 and GCD(38, 52) = 2.
$$ \text{LCM} (38, 52) = \frac{ 38 \cdot 52 }{ \text{GCD}(38,52)} = \frac{ 1976 }{ 2 } = 988 $$This page was created using
