Least Common Multiple of 41 and 55 with GCF Formula

The formula of LCM is LCM(a,b) = ( a × b) / GCF(a,b).
We need to calculate greatest common factor 41 and 55, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(41,55) = 1
LCM(41,55) = ( 41 × 55) / 1
LCM(41,55) = 2255 / 1
LCM(41,55) = 2255

Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 41 and 55 with Primes
