    what is the lcm of 7, 28 and 66?
    lcm (7   28   66) = (?)
    7 => 7
    28 => 2 x 2 x 7
    66 => 2 x 3 x 11

    = 2 x 7 x 2 x 3 x 11
    = 924
    lcm (7, 28 and 66) = 924
    924 is the lcm of 7, 28 and 66.

    where,
    7 is a positive integer,
    28 is a positive integer,
    924 is the lcm of 7, 28 and 66,
    {2, 7} in {7, 2 x 2 x 7, 2 x 3 x 11} are the most repeated factors of 7, 28 and 66,
    {2, 3, 11} in {7, 2 x 2 x 7, 2 x 3 x 11} are the the other remaining factors of 7, 28 and 66.

    Use in Mathematics: LCM of 7, 28 and 66
    The below are some of the mathematical applications where lcm of 7, 28 and 66 can be used:

    1. to find the least number which is exactly divisible by 7, 28 and 66.
    2. to find the common denominators for the fractions having 7, 28 and 66 as denominators in the unlike fractions addition or subtraction.
    Use in Real-world Problems: 7, 28 and 66 lcm
    In the context of lcm real world problems, the lcm of 7, 28 and 66 helps to find the exact time when three similar and recurring with different time schedule happens together at the same time. For example, the real world problems involve lcm in situations to find at what time all the bells A, B and C toll together, if bell A tolls at 7 seconds, B tolls at 28 seconds and C tolls at 66 seconds repeatedly. The answer is that all bells A, B and C toll together at 924 seconds for the first time, at 1848 seconds for the second time, at 2772 seconds for the third time and so on.

    How-to: What is the LCM of 7, 28 and 66?

    The below solved example with step by step work shows how to find what is the lcm of 7, 28 and 66 by using either prime factors method and special division method.

    Solved example using prime factors method:
    What is the LCM of 7, 28 and 66?

    step 1 Address the input parameters, values and observe what to be found:
    Input parameters and values:
    A = 7
    B = 28
    C = 66

    What to be found:
    find the lcm of 7, 28 and 66

    step 2 Find the prime factors of 7, 28 and 66:
    Prime factors of 7 = 7
    Prime factors of 28 = 2 x 2 x 7
    Prime factors of 66 = 2 x 3 x 11

    step 3 Identify the repeated and non-repeated prime factors of 7, 28 and 66:
    {2, 7} are the most repeated factors and {2, 3, 11} are the non-repeated factors of 7, 28 and 66.

    step 4 Find the product of repeated and non-repeated prime factors of 7, 28 and 66:
    = 2 x 7 x 2 x 3 x 11
    = 924
    lcm(20 and 30) = 924

    Hence,
    lcm of 7, 28 and 66 is 924


    Solved example using special division method:
    This special division method is the easiest way to understand the entire calculation of what is the lcm of 7, 28 and 66.

    step 1 Address the input parameters, values and observe what to be found:
    Input parameters and values:
    Integers: 7, 28 and 66

    What to be found:
    lcm (7, 28, 66) = ?

    step 2 Arrange the given integers in the horizontal form with space or comma separated format:
    7, 28 and 66

    step 3 Choose the divisor which divides each or most of the given integers (7, 28 and 66), divide each integers separately and write down the quotient in the next line right under the respective integers. Bring down the integer to the next line if any integer in 7, 28 and 66 is not divisible by the selected divisor; repeat the same process until all the integers are brought to 1 as like below:

    272866
    271433
    37733
    77711
    111111
    111

    step 4 Multiply the divisors to find the lcm of 7, 28 and 66:
    = 2 x 2 x 3 x 7 x 11
    = 924
    LCM(7, 28, 66) = 924

    The least common multiple for three numbers 7, 28 and 66 is 924
