How to find the Least Common Multiple of 39 and 44?
On this page below, we'll use the Prime Factorisation, and the List of Multiples method to find out the LCM of 39 and 44.
Follow the steps below, and let's calculate the LCM of 39 and 44.
Method 1 - Prime factorization
Step 1: Create a list of all the prime factors of the numbers 39 and 44:
Prime factors of 39
The prime factors of 39 are 3 and 13. Prime factorization of 39 in exponential form is:
39 = 31x131
Prime factors of 44
The prime factors of 44 are 2, 2 and 11. Prime factorization of 44 in exponential form is:
44 = 22x111
Step 2: Identify the highest power of each prime number from the above boxes:
31, 131, 22, 111
Step 3: Multiply these values together:
31x131x22x111=1716
Step 4: The result:
As seen on the calculation above, we have now obtained the LCM of 39 and 44.
The Least Common Multiple of 39 and 44 is 1716.
