Question

Find the least common multiple of 7 and 6

Answer 1

LCM of the number 6 and 7 is 42,

Explanation:

Here, we need to find the Lease Common Multiple (LCM) of 7 and 6.

Prime factorizing the given numbers, we get:

6 = 1 x 2 x 3

7 = 1 x 7

As, we can see, 6 and 7 have NO COMMON FACTORS.

So, LCM of the given number 7 and 6 is the PRODUCT OF numbers

7 and 6.

Now, 7 x 6 = 42

Hence, LCM of the number 6 and 7 is 42,
