Least Common Multiple of 13 and 19 with GCF Formula

The formula of LCM is LCM(a,b) = ( a × b) / GCF(a,b).
We need to calculate greatest common factor 13 and 19, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(13,19) = 1
LCM(13,19) = ( 13 × 19) / 1
LCM(13,19) = 247 / 1
LCM(13,19) = 247

Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 13 and 19 with Primes

Least common multiple can be found by multiplying the highest exponent prime factors of 13 and 19. First we will calculate the prime factors of 13 and 19.

Prime Factorization of 13

Prime factors of 13 are 13. Prime factorization of 13 in exponential form is:

13 = 131

Prime Factorization of 19
