5-1 Least Common Multiple
Objective
SWBAT find the least common multiple
(LCM) of a group of numbers using two
methods.

Remember!
A multiple of a number is the
product of the number and any
nonzero whole number.

Ex. 1 Consumer Application
English muffins come in packs of 8, and eggs come in
cartons of 12. If there are 24 students, what is the least
number of packs and cartons needed so that each
student has a muffin sandwich with one egg and there
are none left over?
Draw muffins in groups of 8. Draw eggs in groups of 12.
Stop when you have drawn the same number of each.
There are 24 English muffins and 24 eggs.
So 3 packs of English muffins and 2 cartons of eggs are
needed.

Dog cookies come in packages of 6, and bones in bags of
9. If there are 18 dogs, what is the least number of
packages and bags needed so that each dog has a treat
box with one bone and one cookie and there are no
bones or cookies left over?
Draw cookies in groups of 6. Draw bones in groups of 9. Stop
when you have drawn the same number of each.
There are 18 dog cookies and 18 bones.
So 3 packages of dog cookies and 2 bags of bones are needed.

Hotdogs come in packages of 10, and buns come
packages of 8. If you are throwing a BBQ party and
want to serve hotdogs with buns, what is the least
amount of hotdogs and buns you would have to buy so
that there are no remaining hotdogs and buns?
5-1 Least Common Multiple
The smallest number that is a multiple of
two or more numbers is the least
common multiple (LCM). In Additional
Example 1, the LCM of 8 and 12 is 24.

Ex. 2 - Using Multiples to Find the LCM
Find the least common multiple (LCM).
Method 1: Use a list.
4, 5, and 8
4: 4, 8, 12 , 16, 20, 24, 28, 32,
36, 40, 44, . . .
List multiples of 4, 5, and 8.
5: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, . . .
8: 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, . . .
LCM: 40
Find the smallest number
that is in all the lists.

Remember!
The prime factorization of a number is
the number written as a product of its
prime factors.
