Least Common Multiple of 16, 172

Least common multiple or lowest common denominator (lcd) can be calculated in three ways

• Least Common Multiple of 16, 172 by common division method
• Least Common Multiple of 16, 172 with GCF Formula

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 4 x 43 = 688

The formula of LCM is LCM(a₁,a₂,a₃....,a_n) = ( a₁ × a₂ × a₃ × .... × a_n) / GCF(a₁,a₂,a₃....,a_n) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).

We need to calculate greatest common factor of 16,172 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(16,172) = 4

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1

GCF(16,172) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4

LCM(16,172) = ( 16 × 172 ) / 4

LCM(16,172) = 2752 / 4

LCM(16,172) = 688

∴ Least Common Multiple of 16,172 is 688

Here are some samples of LCM of two or more Numbers calculations.

• LCM of 34, 455
• LCM of 60, 586
• LCM of 28, 570
• LCM of 68, 639
• LCM of 88, 267
