Least Common Multiple of 35 and 43

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

• Least Common Multiple of 35 and 43 by Prime method
• Least Common Multiple of 35 and 43 with GCF Formula

Least common multiple can be found by multiplying the highest exponent prime factors of 35 and 43. First we will calculate the prime factors of 35 and 43.

Prime Factorization of 35

Prime factors of 35 are 5,7. Prime factorization of 35 in exponential form is:

35 = 5¹×7¹

Prime Factorization of 43

Prime factors of 43 are 43. Prime factorization of 43 in exponential form is:

43 = 43¹

Now multiplying the highest exponent prime factors to calculate the LCM of 35 and 43.

LCM(35,43) = 5¹×7¹×43¹
LCM(35,43) = 1505

Factors of 35

List of positive integer factors of 35 that divides 35 without a remainder.

1, 5, 7, 35

Factors of 43

List of positive integer factors of 43 that divides 43 without a remainder.

1, 43

The formula of LCM is LCM(a,b) = ( a × b) / GCF(a,b).
We need to calculate greatest common factor 35 and 43, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(35,43) = 1
LCM(35,43) = ( 35 × 43) / 1
LCM(35,43) = 1505 / 1
LCM(35,43) = 1505

(i) The LCM of 43 and 35 is associative
