Identify the Prime Factors of 15 and 45 by Prime Factorization:
Prime Factorization of 15: 15 = 3 x 5 = 31 x 51
Prime Factorization of 45: 45 = 3 x 3 x 5 = 32 x 51
Prime Factors of 15 and 45: 3 and 5
Least Common Multiple of 15 and 45 is the product of their Prime Factors raised to the highest occurrence (largest exponent) of each factor:
LCM(15,45) = 32 x 51
LCM(15,45) = 9 x 5
LCM(15,45) = 45
Least Common Multiple of 15 and 45 by Prime Factorization
