What is LCM of 625 and 325?


Definition of LCM

LCM stands for least common multiple. In mathematics, LCM of two numbers 625 and 325, is defined as the smallest positive integer that is divisible by both. It is written as LCM(625, 325).

Properties of LCM

  • The LCM of two or more prime numbers is exactly equal to their product.
  • LCM is associative which means LCM(625, 325) = LCM(325, 625).
  • LCM is commutative which means LCM(a, b, c) = LCM(LCM(a, b), c) = LCM(a, LCM(b, c)).
  • LCM is distributive, which means LCM(ab, bc, ad) = d * LCM(x, y, z).
  • The LCM of two given numbers is always greater than the given numbers numbers. Eg- LCM of 625 and 325 is 8125, where 8125 is greater than 625 and 325.

Examples

Franky and Joy are running on a circular track. They start at the same time. They take 625 and 325 minutes respectively to go round once. Find at what time they will run together?

Franky and Joy are running on a circular track. They take 625 and 325 minutes respectively to go round once. We need to find out at what time (minimum) they will run together again. For this we need to find the LCM of 625 and 325.
So, LCM of 625 and 325 is 8125.

A shopkeeper sells candies in packet of 625 and chocolates in packet of 325. What is the least number of candies and chocolates Annie should buy so that there will be one candy for each chocolate?

The least number of candies and chocolates Annie should buy so that there will be one candy for each chocolate we need to find the lcm of 625 and 325.
So, LCM of 625 and 325 is 8125.

Boxes that are 625 inches tall are being pilled next to boxes that are 325 inches tall. What is the least height in feet at which the two piles will be the same height?

To find the least height in feet at which the two piles will be at same height we will find LCM of 625 and 325.
So, LCM of 625 and 325 is 8125.
