LCM of 8 and 9 is 72
The least common multiple or LCM of two numbers 8 and 9 is defined as the smallest positive integer which is divisible by both of them. It is represented by LCM(8, 9).
Hence, LCM of 8 and 9 is 72.
| 2 | 8 9 |
| 2 | 4 9 |
| 2 | 2 9 |
| 3 | 1 9 |
| 3 | 1 3 |
| 1 1 |
Hence, LCM of 8 and 9 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 = 72.
Hence, LCM of 8 and 9 is 72.
