How can you tell when the LCM of two numbers will equal one of the numbers or equal the product of the numbers

1 answer:

7 0

When one number will divide exactly into the other one then the other one will be the LCM. For example the LCM of 4 and 8 = 8 .

When they do not divide as above then the product of the numbers may be the LCM. For example the LCM of 3 and 4 = 3*4 = 12.

The product is not always the LCM. It might be a lower number . For example the LCM of 4 and 6 is not 24 but 12. ( 24 / 2).

161 1-foot tiles.

EXPLANATION:

To find how many tiles we need,
We must find the area of the kitchen.

To find the area, you multiply
length x width

In this question,
the length is 14
the width is 11.5

14 x 11.5 is 161.

So 161 1-foot tiles to cover the kitchen.

Hope this helps! Have a gud day!
