What is the Least Common Multiple of 245 and 261?
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 245 and 261 is 63945.
LCM(245,261) = 63945
Least Common Multiple of 245 and 261 with GCF Formula
The formula of LCM is LCM(a,b) = ( a × b) / GCF(a,b).
We need to calculate greatest common factor 245 and 261, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(245,261) = 1
LCM(245,261) = ( 245 × 261) / 1
LCM(245,261) = 63945 / 1
LCM(245,261) = 63945
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 245 and 261 with Primes
