How to Find LCM of 1500,1000?
Given Numbers are 1500,1000
Given numbers are 1500,1000. The highest number of digits after the decimal point in the given case is 1
Thus, in order to get rid of the decimal point we need to multiply them with 10. On doing so, they are as follows
1500 x 10 = 15000
1000 x 10 = 10000
The LCM of 15000,10000 is 30000
So, the LCM of 1500,1000 is 3000
| 2 | 15000, 10000 |
| 2 | 7500, 5000 |
| 2 | 3750, 2500 |
| 5 | 1875, 1250 |
| 5 | 375, 250 |
| 5 | 75, 50 |
| 5 | 15, 10 |
| 3, 2 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 5 x 5 x 5 x 5 x 3 x 2 = 30000
Divide the result you got with the number you multiplied to make it as integer in the first step. In this case, we need to divide by 10 as we used it to make the given numbers into integers.
On dividing the LCM 30000/10 we get 3000
Thus the Least Common Multiple of 1500,1000 is 3000
Least Common Multiple of 15000,10000 with GCF Formula
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 15000,10000 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(15000,10000) = 5000
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(15000,10000) x common factors =5000 x 1 = 5000
LCM(15000,10000) = ( 15000 × 10000 ) / 5000
LCM(15000,10000) = 150000000 / 5000
LCM(15000,10000) = 30000
