How to find the Least Common Multiple of 35 and 46?
On this page below, we'll use the Prime Factorisation, and the List of Multiples method to find out the LCM of 35 and 46.
Follow the steps below, and let's calculate the LCM of 35 and 46.
Method 1 - Prime factorization
Step 1: Create a list of all the prime factors of the numbers 35 and 46:
Prime factors of 35
The prime factors of 35 are 5 and 7. Prime factorization of 35 in exponential form is:
35 = 51x71
Prime factors of 46
The prime factors of 46 are 2 and 23. Prime factorization of 46 in exponential form is:
46 = 21x231
Step 2: Identify the highest power of each prime number from the above boxes:
51, 71, 21, 231
Step 3: Multiply these values together:
51x71x21x231=1610
Step 4: The result:
As seen on the calculation above, we have now obtained the LCM of 35 and 46.
The Least Common Multiple of 35 and 46 is 1610.
Method 2 - List of Multiples
Find and list multiples of each number until the first common multiple is found. This is the lowest common multiple.
Multiples of 35:
35, 70, 105, 140, 175, 210, 245, 280, 315, 350, 385, 420, 455, 490, 525, 560, 595, 630, 665, 700, 735, 770, 805, 840, 875, 910, 945, 980, 1015, 1050, 1085, 1120, 1155, 1190, 1225, 1260, 1295, 1330, 1365, 1400, 1435, 1470, 1505, 1540, 1575, 1610, 1645, 1680, 1715
Multiples of 46:
46, 92, 138, 184, 230, 276, 322, 368, 414, 460, 506, 552, 598, 644, 690, 736, 782, 828, 874, 920, 966, 1012, 1058, 1104, 1150, 1196, 1242, 1288, 1334, 1380, 1426, 1472, 1518, 1564, 1610, 1656, 1702, 1748
