LCM of 15 and 8 is 120
LCM stands for least common multiple. In mathematics, LCM of two numbers 15 and 8, is defined as the smallest positive integer that is divisible by both. It is written as LCM(15, 8).
Hence, LCM of 15 and 8 is 120.
| 2 | 15 8 |
| 2 | 15 4 |
| 2 | 15 2 |
| 3 | 15 1 |
| 5 | 5 1 |
| 1 1 |
Hence, LCM of 15 and 8 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 = 120.
Hence, LCM of 15 and 8 is 120.
