What is the LCM of 4 and 11

The LCM of 4 and 11 is the lowest number that divides both 4 and 11 without leaving any remainder. The LCM of 4 and 11 is 44.
 

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

How to find the LCM of 4 and 11?

The LCM of 4 and 11 can be found by the following methods like division method, listing multiples, prime factorization.
 

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

LCM of 4 and 11 using Division method:

In the division method, we divide both the numbers by the lowest possible number until we get 1 for both numbers.

 

2 divides 4 and not 11 


2 divides 2 leaving 1


11 divides 11 leaving 1

 

LCM = 2 × 2× 11= 44.
 

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

LCM of 4 and 11 using Listing multiples:

We write the multiples of both numbers till we find the common one.


Multiples of  4: 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40, 44…


Multiples of 11: 11, 22, 33, 44…


The common multiple is 44. So, the LCM of 4 and 11 is 44.


We write the multiples of both numbers till we find the common one.


Multiples of  4: 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40, 44…


Multiples of 11: 11, 22, 33, 44…


The common multiple is 44. So, the LCM of 4 and 11 is 44.
 

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

LCM of 4 and 11 using prime factorization:

We part each number into divisors and select the highest powers of all the prime factors.

 

4= 2 × 2


11= 11

 

LCM = 2 × 2 × 11= 44.

Mistake 1

Red Cross Icon Indicating Mistakes to Avoid in This Math Topic

Not including the prime factors with the right ones.
 

Green Checkmark Icon Indicating Correct Solutions in This Math Topic

Children sometimes get confused and do not include the prime factors, instead of writing 9=3×3 they write 9=3×1. Students should always break numbers into prime numbers.

Problem 3

Two events occur every 4 days and 11 days, respectively. If both events coincide today, when will they next occur on the same day?

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

The LCM of 4 and 11 is 44.
 

Explanation

LCM of 4 and 11 :

 
LCM(4,11)= 2 × 2 × 11=44


Both events will occur on the same day again in 44 days.

Problem 4

Solve for x: x/4 + x/11 =15

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

  The value of x is 44.
 

Explanation

 LCM (4,11) =44

 

11x/44 + 4x/44 =15

 

15x= 15 × 44


15x = 660


x=44.
