Identify the Prime Factors of 5 and 6 by Prime Factorization:
Prime Factorization of 5: 5 = 51
Prime Factorization of 6: 6 = 2 x 3 = 21 x 31
Prime Factors of 5 and 6: 2, 3 and 5
Least Common Multiple of 5 and 6 is the product of their Prime Factors raised to the highest occurrence (largest exponent) of each factor:
LCM(5,6) = 21 x 31 x 51
LCM(5,6) = 30
Least Common Multiple of 5 and 6 by Prime Factorization
The solution above and all other related solutions were provided by the Least Common Multiple by Prime Factorization Application.
