start with 30:
(30) = 2 * (15)
(15) = 3 * 5
so, 2 * 3 * 5 = 2^1, 3^1, 5^1
now 21:
(21) = 3 * 7
so, 3 * 7 = 3^1, 7^1
take highest of each factor out of both rows = 2^1, 3^1, 5^1, 7^1
then multiply: 2 * 3 * 5 * 7 = 210
Draw the prime factorization table and put both the numbers on it. Find common prime factors and divide both of them writing the products down. Do this until the quotients are either 1 or any prime number. Write down all the factors used and it will be the prime factorization. Multiply them and you will find the LCM of the numbers. Here, 18,21 6,7...................(/3) Prime factorization=6*7*3 LCM=42*3=126
It is 105 bacause 3*5*7 = 105
The prime factorization for 21 is: 3x73 x 7 = 21
3 x 3 = 9 3 x 7 = 21 3 x 3 x 7 = 63, the LCM
3 x 3 = 9 3 x 7 = 21 3 x 3 x 7 = 63, the LCM
3 x 3 = 9 3 x 7 = 21 3 x 3 x 7 = 63, the LCM
2 x 7 = 14 3 x 7 = 21 2 x 3 x 7 = 42, the LCM
3 x 5 = 15 3 x 7 = 21 3 x 5 x 7 = 105, the LCM
3 x 7 = 21, since both factors are prime, that is the prime factorization of 21.
3 x 5 = 15 3 x 7 = 21 3 x 5 x 7 = 105, the LCM
The prime factorization of 71421 is 3 x 7 x 19 x 179 but that's probably not what we're dealing with here. 7 2 x 7 = 14 3 x 7 = 21 The LCM and GCF refer to the set as a whole, not the individual numbers. The GCF of 7, 14, 21 is 7 The LCM of 7, 14, 21 is 42
The prime factorization of 21 is 3 x 7.
