What is the Least Common Multiple of 86 and 75?

The Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 86 and 75 is the smallest positive number that is a multiple of both 86 and 75.

Here we will show you two different ways to figure out the Least Common Multiple of 86 and 75.

Our favorite way is to find the prime factors of each number and then merge them together to get the answer.

The prime factor(s) of 86 are:
2 x 43

The prime factor(s) of 75 are:
3 x 5 x 5

Merging them together using the least amount of factors, you get:

2 x 3 x 5 x 5 x 43

Then you can multiply those numbers together to get the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 86 and 75 as follows:

6450
