1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64
Factors of 75
List of positive integer factors of 75 that divides 75 without a remainder.
1, 3, 5, 15, 25, 75
The formula of LCM is LCM(a,b) = ( a × b) / GCF(a,b).
We need to calculate greatest common factor 64 and 75, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(64,75) = 1
LCM(64,75) = ( 64 × 75) / 1
LCM(64,75) = 4800 / 1
LCM(64,75) = 4800
(i) The LCM of 75 and 64 is associative
LCM of 64 and 75 = LCM of 75 and 64
