Identify the Prime Factors of 20 and 100 by Prime Factorization:
Prime Factorization of 20: 20 = 2 x 2 x 5 = 22 x 51
Prime Factorization of 100: 100 = 2 x 2 x 5 x 5 = 22 x 52
Prime Factors of 20 and 100: 2 and 5
Least Common Multiple of 20 and 100 is the product of their Prime Factors raised to the highest occurrence (largest exponent) of each factor:
LCM(20,100) = 22 x 52
LCM(20,100) = 4 x 25
LCM(20,100) = 100
Least Common Multiple of 20 and 100 by Prime Factorization
The solution above and all other related solutions were provided by the Least Common Multiple by Prime Factorization Application.
