Given Numbers: 11, 55
Identify the Prime Factors of 11 and 55 by Prime Factorization:
Prime Factorization of 11: 11 = 111 (prime number)
Prime Factorization of 55: 55 = 5 x 11 = 51 x 111
Prime Factors of 11 and 55 (collectively): 5 and 11
Least Common Multiple of 11 and 55 is the product of their Prime Factors raised to the highest occurrence (largest exponent) of each factor:
LCM(11, 55) = 51 x 111
LCM(11, 55) = 5 x 11
LCM(11, 55) = 55
Note: Since 55 is a multiple of 11, it is also the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of the two given numbers
