Identify the Prime Factors of 9 and 12 by Prime Factorization:
Prime Factorization of 9: 9 = 3 x 3 = 32
Prime Factorization of 12: 12 = 2 x 2 x 3 = 22 x 31
Prime Factors of 9 and 12: 2 and 3
Least Common Multiple of 9 and 12 is the product of their Prime Factors raised to the highest occurrence (largest exponent) of each factor:
LCM(9,12) = 22 x 32
LCM(9,12) = 4 x 9
LCM(9,12) = 36
Least Common Multiple of 9 and 12 by Prime Factorization
The solution above and all other related solutions were provided by the Least Common Multiple by Prime Factorization Application.
