Least Common Multiple of 67 and 73

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

• Least Common Multiple of 67 and 73 by Prime method
• Least Common Multiple of 67 and 73 with GCF Formula

Least common multiple can be found by multiplying the highest exponent prime factors of 67 and 73. First we will calculate the prime factors of 67 and 73.

Prime Factorization of 67

Prime factors of 67 are 67. Prime factorization of 67 in exponential form is:

67 = 67¹

Prime Factorization of 73

Prime factors of 73 are 73. Prime factorization of 73 in exponential form is:

73 = 73¹

Now multiplying the highest exponent prime factors to calculate the LCM of 67 and 73.

LCM(67,73) = 67¹×73¹
LCM(67,73) = 4891

Factors of 67

List of positive integer factors of 67 that divides 67 without a remainder.

1, 67

Factors of 73

List of positive integer factors of 73 that divides 73 without a remainder.

1, 73

The formula of LCM is LCM(a,b) = ( a × b) / GCF(a,b).
We need to calculate greatest common factor 67 and 73, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(67,73) = 1
LCM(67,73) = ( 67 × 73) / 1
LCM(67,73) = 4891 / 1
LCM(67,73) = 4891

(i) The LCM of 73 and 67 is associative
