LCM of:

Least Common Multiple of 16,36,540

Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 16,36,540 is 2160

2 16, 36, 540
2 8, 18, 270
3 4, 9, 135
3 4, 3, 45
4, 1, 15

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 4 x 1 x 15 = 2160

Least Common Multiple of 16,36,540 with GCF Formula

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

We need to calculate greatest common factor of 16,36,540 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(16,36,540) = 4

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 36

GCF(16,36,540) x common factors =4 x 36 = 144

LCM(16,36,540) = ( 16 × 36 × 540 ) / 144

LCM(16,36,540) = 311040 / 144

LCM(16,36,540) = 2160

∴ Least Common Multiple of 16,36,540 is 2160
