Least Common Multiple of 33 and 41

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

• Least Common Multiple of 33 and 41 by Prime method
• Least Common Multiple of 33 and 41 with GCF Formula

Least common multiple can be found by multiplying the highest exponent prime factors of 33 and 41. First we will calculate the prime factors of 33 and 41.

Prime Factorization of 33

Prime factors of 33 are 3,11. Prime factorization of 33 in exponential form is:

33 = 3¹×11¹

Prime Factorization of 41

Prime factors of 41 are 41. Prime factorization of 41 in exponential form is:

41 = 41¹

Now multiplying the highest exponent prime factors to calculate the LCM of 33 and 41.

LCM(33,41) = 3¹×11¹×41¹
LCM(33,41) = 1353

Factors of 33

List of positive integer factors of 33 that divides 33 without a remainder.

1, 3, 11, 33

Factors of 41

List of positive integer factors of 41 that divides 41 without a remainder.

1, 41

The formula of LCM is LCM(a,b) = ( a × b) / GCF(a,b).
We need to calculate greatest common factor 33 and 41, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(33,41) = 1
LCM(33,41) = ( 33 × 41) / 1
LCM(33,41) = 1353 / 1
LCM(33,41) = 1353

(i) The LCM of 41 and 33 is associative

LCM of 33 and 41 = LCM of 41 and 33
