## Least Common Multiple of 18 and 37 with GCF Formula

The formula of LCM is LCM(a,b) = ( a × b) / GCF(a,b).
We need to calculate greatest common factor 18 and 37, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(18,37) = 1
LCM(18,37) = ( 18 × 37) / 1
LCM(18,37) = 666 / 1
LCM(18,37) = 666

## Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 18 and 37 with Primes

Least common multiple can be found by multiplying the highest exponent prime factors of 18 and 37. First we will calculate the prime factors of 18 and 37.

### Prime Factorization of 18

Prime factors of 18 are 2, 3. Prime factorization of 18 in exponential form is:

18 = 21 × 32

### Prime Factorization of 37

Prime factors of 37 are 37. Prime factorization of 37 in exponential form is:

37 = 371

Now multiplying the highest exponent prime factors to calculate the LCM of 18 and 37.

LCM(18,37) = 21 × 32 × 371
LCM(18,37) = 666
