What is the Least Common Multiple of 208 and 221?
Least common multiple or lowest common denominator (lcd) can be calculated in two way; with the LCM formula calculation of greatest common factor (GCF), or multiplying the prime factors with the highest exponent factor.
Least common multiple (LCM) of 208 and 221 is 3536.
LCM(208,221) = 3536
Least Common Multiple of 208 and 221 with GCF Formula
The formula of LCM is LCM(a,b) = ( a × b) / GCF(a,b).
We need to calculate greatest common factor 208 and 221, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(208,221) = 13
LCM(208,221) = ( 208 × 221) / 13
LCM(208,221) = 45968 / 13
LCM(208,221) = 3536
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 208 and 221 with Primes
