Given Numbers: 55, 88
Identify the Prime Factors of 55 and 88 by Prime Factorization:
Prime Factorization of 55: 55 = 5 x 11 = 51 x 111
Prime Factorization of 88: 88 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 11 = 23 x 111
Prime Factors of 55 and 88 (collectively): 2, 5 and 11
Least Common Multiple of 55 and 88 is the product of their Prime Factors raised to the highest occurrence (largest exponent) of each factor:
LCM(55, 88) = 23 x 51 x 111
LCM(55, 88) = 8 x 5 x 11
LCM(55, 88) = 440
Least Common Multiple of 55 and 88 by Prime Factorization
The solution above and all other related solutions were provided by the Least Common Multiple by Prime Factorization Application.
