Find Least Common Multiple of 2299 and 17 using prime factorisation method.
Answer
LCM( 2299, 17 ) = 39083
Explanation
Step 1: Write down factorisation of each number:
2299 = 11 · 11 · 19
17 = 17
Step 2 : Match primes vertically:
| 2299 | = | 11 | · | 11 | · | 19 | ||
| 17 | = | 17 |
Step 3 : Bring down numbers in each column and multiply to get LCM:
| 2299 | = | 11 | · | 11 | · | 19 | ||||
| 17 | = | 17 | ||||||||
| LCM | = | 11 | · | 11 | · | 17 | · | 19 | = | 39083 |
This solution can be visualized using a Venn diagram.
