Use the LCM of two or more numbers Calculator to find the Least Common Multiple of numbers 500, 100, 240, 16 i.e. 6000 smallest integer divisible by all numbers.

Least common multiple (LCM) of 500, 100, 240, 16 is 6000.

LCM(500, 100, 240, 16) = 6000

LCM of 500, 100, 240, 16

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

LCM of:

Least Common Multiple of 500,100,240,16

Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 500,100,240,16 is 6000

2 500, 100, 240, 16
2 250, 50, 120, 8
2 125, 25, 60, 4
2 125, 25, 30, 2
5 125, 25, 15, 1
5 5, 25, 3, 1
1, 5, 3, 1

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 5 x 5 x 1 x 5 x 3 x 1 = 6000

Least Common Multiple of 500,100,240,16 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 500,100,240,16 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(500,100,240,16) = 4

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 8000

GCF(500,100,240,16) x common factors =4 x 8000 = 32000

LCM(500,100,240,16) = ( 500 × 100 × 240 × 16 ) / 32000

LCM(500,100,240,16) = 192000000 / 32000

LCM(500,100,240,16) = 6000

∴ Least Common Multiple of 500,100,240,16 is 6000
