Least Common Multiple of 3, 42, 22, 21

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

• Least Common Multiple of 3, 42, 22, 21 by common division method
• Least Common Multiple of 3, 42, 22, 21 with GCF Formula

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 7 x 1 x 1 x 11 x 1 = 462

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 3,42,22,21 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(3,42,22,21) = 1

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 126

GCF(3,42,22,21) x common factors =1 x 126 = 126

LCM(3,42,22,21) = ( 3 × 42 × 22 × 21 ) / 126

LCM(3,42,22,21) = 58212 / 126

LCM(3,42,22,21) = 462

∴ Least Common Multiple of 3,42,22,21 is 462

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