Find Least Common Multiple of 63 and 91 using prime factorisation method.
Answer
LCM( 63, 91 ) = 819
Explanation
Step 1: Write down factorisation of each number:
63 = 3 · 3 · 7
91 = 7 · 13
Step 2 : Match primes vertically:
| 63 | = | 3 | · | 3 | · | 7 | ||
| 91 | = | 7 | · | 13 |
Step 3 : Bring down numbers in each column and multiply to get LCM:
| 63 | = | 3 | · | 3 | · | 7 | ||||
| 91 | = | 7 | · | 13 | ||||||
| LCM | = | 3 | · | 3 | · | 7 | · | 13 | = | 819 |
This solution can be visualized using a Venn diagram.
The LCM is equal to the product of all the numbers on the diagram.
