LCM( 2299, 11 ) = 2299
Step 1: Write down factorisation of each number:
2299 = 11 · 11 · 19
11 = 11
Step 2 : Match primes vertically:
2299 | = | 11 | · | 11 | · | 19 |
11 | = | 11 |
Step 3 : Bring down numbers in each column and multiply to get LCM:
2299 | = | 11 | · | 11 | · | 19 | ||
11 | = | 11 | ||||||
LCM | = | 11 | · | 11 | · | 19 | = | 2299 |
