Least Common Multiple of 72, 60, 840

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

• Least Common Multiple of 72, 60, 840 by common division method
• Least Common Multiple of 72, 60, 840 with GCF Formula

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 x 3 x 1 x 7 = 2520

The formula of LCM is LCM(a₁,a₂,a₃....,a_n) = ( a₁ × a₂ × a₃ × .... × a_n) / GCF(a₁,a₂,a₃....,a_n) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).

We need to calculate greatest common factor of 72,60,840 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(72,60,840) = 12

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 120

GCF(72,60,840) x common factors =12 x 120 = 1440

LCM(72,60,840) = ( 72 × 60 × 840 ) / 1440

LCM(72,60,840) = 3628800 / 1440

LCM(72,60,840) = 2520

∴ Least Common Multiple of 72,60,840 is 2520

Here are some samples of LCM of two or more Numbers calculations.

• LCM of 27, 63, 679
• LCM of 59, 83, 588
• LCM of 18, 27, 181
